Bluescreen Vista Ultimate

Hello,

I've a problem with my Windows Vista Ultimate x86. Very randomly it appears a bluescreen for me, the bluescreen itself i can't be fast enough to see but it says things like Dumping Physical Memory.

I looked into error logs and found out that the computer had only crashed when in games and when it entered screensaver mode. Therefor i removed the screensaver/powersave functions, resulting in that i've never from that point experienced a bluescreen while in windows surfing etc or leaving it on during the night, BUT i still experience bluescreens in games.

It's very randomly appearing in games , sometimes i could've been playing for hours sometime just a coupple of minutes before it appears.

I downloaded windows debugging tools , winternal admin tools and windows vista symbol package to be able to decrypt the error message in windows and got this.

=====
Analysis of c:\windows\minidump\mini020608-04.dmp complete:
The driver probably at fault is NETIO.SYS

Time of the crash: Wed Feb 6 20:17:09.630 2008 (GMT+1)

Additional available details:
Description: Network I/O Subsystem
Image path: %systemroot%\system32\drivers\netio.sys
Company: Microsoft Corporation
Timestamp: Fri Sep 28 084:47:00 2007

=====

I browsed internet for NETIO errors and came up to a small site suggesting a hotfix , not sure but i applyed that fix and it didn't help.

Tryed running memtest86 for a whole night and i got no errors what so ever so this is very wierd to me.

I've also updated to latest Nvidia Drivers and applyed / flashed my bios up to 1.6 (using a MSI P-35 NEO Mainboard). Been updating Vista to latest update i guess as well.


System:
q6600 2,4 ghz
2064mb ddr2
500gb hdd caviar
8800GTS 512mb ddr3

Re: Bluescreen Vista Ultimate

Well i belive it's NETIO.sys and TCPIP.sys that are faulty.
If i decrypt windows error message it says that netio.sys probably is the driver at fault. If i browse internet it seems that netio/tcpip.sys are a common problem or somthing at least it shows reports of bluescreen.

Tryed apply a fix for tcpip althou resultet in bluescreen every time i ran windows to i uninstalled that hotfix script.
