Crash Dumps like crazy!

Well, I am having some VERY annoying issues with this computer, seemingly for no reason. It was running fine but lately I've been getting hit with Crash Dump after Crash Dump. I've tried reinstalling my OS twice. Usually it's when I'm watching TV on my tuner card, playing a game, or using Windows Media Player .. so I thought it was an issue with my Video Card ... however it just started hitting me while simply browsing the web. This happened just moments ago. Can anyone help me figure out what's causing this? I'll start by posting the Windows "Problem Report" for my last memory dump and hope you good ppl can come up with something:

Re: Crash Dumps like crazy!

Sorry to double post, but I have somewhat narrowed down the problem. Apparently it's giving me a DirectX error. I don't have the exact error code handy though although it said something to the extent of "DXkrnel" error. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have the latest Geforce drivers and the newest version of DirectX installed. This is getting very frustrating.

Well I fixed the problem, and it wasn't the video. For some odd reason, my CPU's Voltage had been decreased below it's min requirements. I bumped it up a bit and now my computer is running absolutely great.
