BSOD error. please help if anybody would be so kind.

Hello. I have been receiving random blue screens and then get restarted. I have tried to read the mini dump file using Windows Debugger 64, but keep getting a error saying

"Symbols can not be loaded because symbol path is not initialized. *
* *
* The Symbol Path can be set by: *
* using the _NT_SYMBOL_PATH environment variable. *
* using the -y <symbol_path> argument when starting the debugger. *
* using .sympath and .sympath+ *

Probably caused by : ntoskrnl.exe ( nt+8f421 )

I am running Vista 64 Bit Ultimate. The Error below is what I received tonight. I would appreciate any help that anybody would be kind enough to give me. I also would love to learn how to import the proper symbols library so that I can read the mini dump file. I downloaded the reader from Microsoft's website and thought that i downloaded a proper definitions library to interpret the dump files, but am going wrong somewhere. Thanks in advance for the help.
