    Hi,

     

    When did this issue begin to occur?

     

    If recently, system restore can be under consideration.

     

    Please uninstall and reinstall the latest version skype to check the result.

     

    Certain things you can try are to find out the root cause of the problem are given below.

     

    Have a look whether you can reproduce the problem in clean boot.

     

    Clean Boot prevents software conflicts by preventing the startup items and non Microsoft services from loading. This way you can safely follow the process of elimination to check which application is causing this behavior.

     

    Refer:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    Note: Ensure that you put your computer back to normal startup mode after completing the troubleshooting steps. Steps are available in the article given above.

    Use Microsoft Skydrive to upload dump files (c:\windows\minidumps). Once done, post a link here.

    You can also contact Microsoft CSS.

    What do you mean by you don't get this?

    You have to upload to me dump files to determine the cause of your BSOD.
