Random blue screens are caused by a bad driver corrupting system
memory, OR physically bad ram. Since you're sure it's not a bad driver -
you HAVE updated everything, right? - try removing one of the installed
dimms and if the problem continues remove the other one and install the first
in its place.

It could also be your cpu but that's pretty rare. Or heat, but that's
seldom a problem in a quality laptop. Ummm, the little exhaust fan IS running,
right? Anyway, heat problems typically cause reboots and/or shutdowns.
