Was a driver name associated with the bugcheck ?

That was all the info the bugcheck offered :-(

Like maybe an NVidia video driver ?

Is the bug recurring, or "once only" ?

The rebooting happens several times a day -- when the machine is idle
rather than in use. She comes back into the room and sees that the
machine has rebooted. She looked at the bugcheck log(s) only once.


Sometimes, it's easier to review what's going on with a utility like
Nirsoft's BlueScreenView. Personally, I also tend to configure systems
not to reboot after a crash, but that's less important.

Thanks, that looks promising and NOT OVERLY DIFFICULT. Forwarded on.


Outdated NVIDIA driver. Installed latest one. Crashes stopped. YAY!
