sounds good, I've been having a very similar problem and it just started lately. I just reverted my video card drivers back to older detanators (28.9 or something like that) and reverted my sound card drivers back to microsoft ones. So far no problem but I'm getting scratchy sounds, whicH i've seen as a problem around here. Anyway, if I start getting more problems like the BSOD, I'll take your advice.
