If you're blue-screening then you probably have bad RAM. Run mem-test, google it. Especially if you notice it more with multiple tabs open. As far as the display driver crashing idk, that happens to me too, not with IE only with firefox. And only when I download things. I'm nearly at Wipe and Reload OS stage, but I don't want to.

Anyone got any ideas on the crashing display driver when I download things through Firefox? I have the latest GPU drivers and have hardware acceleration turned on and all that jazz.
