Hey guys. Just so you know ahead of time, I am not a noob. I have tried replacing my ntfs.sys with one from another XP machine which I know for a fact works. I only get this blue screen when I try to open an ISO file. Here's the story:

I gave my laptop to Best Buy (have a warranty there) to get it repaired. (Overheating problems...) I was all happy to get it back. I have an ISO file that I wanted to mount, right? I tried to open it with UltraISO to mount it, and the BSOD pops up. I restart and try again. Same thing. So I start up Daemon Tools, which works, and I try to mount it. Same issue. Rebooted and tried again. Same BSOD. Now, whenever I try to start up Daemon Tools or UltraISO, they start the BSOD, even when I don't try to open the ISO I was trying to use before. I tried running the chkdsk /f utility, which worked and fixed a few errors, but to no avail. Still the same problems. I haven't tried defragging it yet, because I am afraid that I will, upon doing this, kill it completely. I do have backups of my most important things, but there is a LOT of stuff on my laptop that I'd rather not reinstall. I know that it isn't really the ISO's fault, because I can sucessfully mount it on another desktop, with the ntfs.sys file that I tried replacing my laptop's with. If you have any ideas, please let me know. Here is the exact BSOD message that I receive:

It was Daemon Tools after all. Thanks for the advice, I just downloaded and bought a copy of Alcohol 120% to avoid the trouble from now on.
