I learned something new today, loose memory can cause BSOD. A computer that seemed to be working fine was randomly getting all different BSODs which usually points to memory. I ran memtest86 from a bootable CD and got over a million errors! I removed 2 of 4 sticks of RAM and reran Memtest and got no errors. I put back the 3rd stick and reran Memtest and got no errors. I then put back the 4th stick and reran Memtest and still got no errors.
