I've been running Vista on and off for a while now, and I've only had this problem recently (I'd say a few weeks ago).
I have the following hardware:
Asus P5n-e SLI
Intel e6300
eVGA 7800GT
Kingston 2GB HyperX Ram
Randomly, my screen would go blank for a second and come back, giving me a "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding" error (which seems to be a widespread problem on nVidia's forums). I have since RMAed the 7800GT (I had other problems with it too, but never like this) and bought a Gigabite 7200GS so I could still use my computer. When I put it in and booted the machine up, I was greeted to a blue screen (and a reboot half a second later). I chose the "Last known good configuration option at the next startup", which worked, but I still get random blue screens when I boot up or resume from standby.
To add to that, my machine blue screens randomly on the desktop. It could be fine running for 6 hours or run for a total of 5 minutes before it gives me an error. All of the blue screens seem to be tied to the nVidia drivers (as per the Problem and Solution program in Vista), but I've reinstalled them at least 4 times and I've run into the same problems with nVidia and the WDM drivers.
I ran a Memtest a while ago just to be sure my memory wasn't bad, and it passed (I'll run one again just to make sure), but does anyone have any advice?
