  There is nothing more to the error message than what you put as an example? There should be more to that error message with the driver causing the issue displayed at teh end of the message (ie - Driver.sys).

  Have you tried looking under Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer > Windows Logs > System for additional information after one of these Stop errors occur? There may be a more detailed error in the logs.

  These are just some of the error codes I keep getting once the BSOD appears.

  I had the same issue with Vista 32 and 64 and now windows 7 Beta. The issue of 0x0000003b is a memory handler device error which was to be fixed by the next release candidate. I use the Nvidia SLI chipset on my MB's and I know it is an sys config error which just hasn't been redressed.
    I am disapointed with MS over this issue as with only 4GB of memory installed on the Motherboard I expected a better response this time around to the common issues. This was and is a common issue.
  Memory handlers are the biggest issue with Microsoft operating systems. They got it wrong with windows 98 and they haven't addressed it correctly since. only supplying patches to a working system. I cannot get even a 64 bit windows O/S up and running from boot installation without this exception and having to remove the memory and perhaps when the kernal kicks in taking over the memory handling.
  I am fed up having to edit XML files to build my own instalation sequences into windows when the provider I.E. Microsoft should have solved the simple script end handle errors by now.
    I certainly will not be upgrading to windows 7 if I cannot do a simple thing like install the O/S no matter how glossy it looks. I may be tempted to go Apple completely.
