Doubt it's hardware. I suspect you're going to have to reinstall 
windows... Nuke it from orbit, etc.

Aumha is my first site for bsod:

or if you want more words, here's the frame version:

http://www.f-secure.com/linux-weblog/2009/09/22/rescue-cd-311/
Their rescue cd can sometimes do stuff that the regular version won't 
do. That might at least point out something amiss. If you're lucky, it 
might fix it...

Hope it helps,
David
