I'm getting random BSODs in a 2-day old install of Windows 7 (which itself was an upgrade from a 1-day old install of Vista--upgrade W7 disc). I'm averaging 1-2 such BSODs a day so far on this gaming rig, but ironically none have happened while gaming.
The latest BSOD said something about tcpip.sys (I think--BSODs are impossible to read given the 5-second duration). It happened while I was watching a youtube video; another happened while I was scrolling through a webpage. A third happened when Windows attempted to install Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable before installing Crysis (I was out of the room when this one took place). As far as I can tell, all the BSODs are cited by Windows Event Viewer as originating from "Kernel-power" event ID 41, with this latest one (tcpip.sys) giving the following details:

I tried uploading the *.DMP file, but I got a "You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file" error.
Potentially useful information:
Running Panda Cloud Antivirus 1.9.1 BETA (which now comes with a firewall) on top of the Windows firewall (only because I’ve been busy setting up the PC).
I should note that this identical hardware (minus a HDD swap) ran Ubuntu Linux flawlessly for 2 years, so I don’t think that it’s a hardware issue.
