For some reason i'm getting the occasional BSOD when booting up the computer. It only seems to happen no more then 2-3 minutes after bootup. It's not a common problem more like once a week or so but I am kind of concerned about it.

Once I checked a problem it stated and found somehow my onboard audio was re-enabled. I disabled it and no problems. I'm not 100% sure but I think it started after installing new firefox 2.0. It's was either that or the combination of ffox & yahoo messenger. I get random shutdowns in ffox where it want's to send errors.

I tried looking up some of the errors, like today I recieved something about win32k.sys. All I could find is possibly a memory error so I ran some memory test programs with no errors found.


Any suggestions? or comments...

Oh yea the only other thing I can remember was uninstalling my old printer and installing a new printer. I can't remember if the errors were before or after it too.

Also it has only BSOD within the first few minutes. After up and running if it hasn't BSOD'd after that it never does, it just runs fast and semi flawless as normal.

It would be helpful to know the numbers on the screen when the BSOD comes up.
