Hi again. . .

Great job on the dbug by the way...

I am staying with Norton's navex15.sys as the substantial contributing factor for in at least of the 3 BSODs. I could tell by its name alone that its origin was years ago as symantec generally has used "SYMxxxxx.sys" as the naming convention in more recent times. The origin of navex15.sys can be found in Windows 2000 - maybe before - and has been seen in many memory dumps. However, your drivers timestamp is February 28, 2008 - obviously recent.

The other crashes were rather generic, in that Microsoft Windows files were named as the cause. This could happen, but I took a good look at the drivers listed in the memory dump and found several dating back into early 2006 - before Vista.

One thing that I did see were the number of old drivers that you have in your system - early 2006 - from drivers for the modem, Nvidea, conexant, the sd camera card reader... Did you install the drivers for these or did Vista find them?

I do believe that you should go over your system top-to-bottom and see if new drivers are available for everything. You are now running Vista SP1 and BSODs will continue for you until the hardware/driver issue is remedied.

Good Luck to you. . .
