LOTS of them… they like attacking me in clusters… for instance once they attacked twice in the middle of editing a video… then again 4 times when i was trying to write a report for school not to mention the other occurances with no correlation amongst any of them. 
Believe it or not, I havent been in the happiest mood for the holidays smile ...

So, just looking for confirmation of thoughts. Follow my sequence of events and lemme know:

1) Outta nowhere STOP errors of IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL with the linked find being something like w2n11.sys which i recognized as being associated with my wireless.  So i restarted a few times.  I would have the wireless on and it wouldnt even make it to log in before BSOD so i turned it off AND…

2) Stop error to a system file something like “w32k” (didnt write any of them down and now im regretting it.  ill repost later with a specific typeout of it all) Anyways, I figured that this meant it wasn’t just the wireless drivers, SO…

3) Complete C: drive recovery throught the VAIO Recovery Wizard.  Halfway through the automatic reinstallation of Works and all that crap, bam!  BSOD!  :evil:  SOOO…

4) Complete C: and D: recovery just to make sure. But alas, I had another one (still didnt write it down rolleyes )

And thats my current status.  I figure (after reading some stuff about stop errors) that its something between the RAM or HD causing index faults ("chkdsk c:” proved this.) Since I reinstalled Windows to factory-status, it cant be a driver issue.  I have concluded to my best knowledge that its faulty ram and I’m going to be making yet another trip to Best Buy to replace it with the AX570G rolleyes… But what are your guys’ thoughts?

(Also, these errors tend to happen after a hibernation/standby wake but it mayjust be coincidence)
