Could be overheating if you're performing intensive operations on it, there's two particular ones I got on one of my laptops that basically says unknown hardware error or "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION". Figured that I'd "disable" turbo boosting by setting the maximum processor percentage to 99% in power settings, and never got that hardware related BSOD again for months. Turns out when I conducted tests, the CPU was reaching above 90C in extreme cases and the tweak saw it never go above 80C.

Here's a useful tool that allows temperature monitoring and stats:

Won't exactly help find problems, but it provides a lot of system information.
Thanks, that gives some interesting information about my computer. Means I know what some stuff is without opening the computer up heh. At the time I got the BSOD I was looking at stuff on the internet, had two tabs open, nothing else running. Don't know if it was doing background stuff though. At the moment computer is running at 44C.

Sounds good. Anything below 80C at high CPU usage is relatively safe in terms of stability (at least from what I read about i7 processors though).

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

FUCK!!!

Spam on Wednesday.

We should only get that when it is governmental spam, and here it is, stupid DIY spam.

I count on Wednesdays being quick, after shitloads and shitloads of rubbish on Tuesdays.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I think I slept in a weird position the night before last. After that things got worse by me not staying off the keyboard, and worse still since I had some driving to do today.

 The aging process is a bitch!  Older bodies remember every bit of effort you've exerted,
 and they keep reminding you about it days and even weeks afterward!  :thumbdn:

I've been thinking about calling one. My regular chiropractor is no longer practising, though, and I need to find someone I can trust.
