Hi all,

Thanks,

Also give us:
What you were doing during the BSOD
Any major changes to your system a week prior to the first BSOD (and what you were doing every time after that)

Hi GeneralHiningII,
Sometimes doing nothing, but usually have a number of Adobe CS5.5 apps open in the process of rendering images. No changes...so as not to upload too much data, I deleted about fifty more dumps before collecting.
Thanks

Photoshop is known for being heavy on the CPU -

Try running Prime 95: Free Software - GIMPS overnight and checking for any errors.
While we're at it, why not put in the rest of the stress tests:
Memtest86+ --- Run overnight
Furmark --- 15min Burn Test, compare your score

Sadly I don't have my BSoD analyzer installed on this laptop so I'm unable to do any "analyzing" - apologies.

Apparently you have no updates installed - check Windows Update and download all available updates.

A few problems point to Photoshop.
Others to either splwow64.exe or svchost.exe

Splwow64.exe:
Thunking Spooler APIS
Print Driver Host
Try uninstalling your Printer from your computer.

Svchost.exe:
Process used to keep specific services connected to the internet

Since the General doesn't have his BSOD analyzer installed, I'm popping in to offer an abbreviated analysis. Please don't let this detract from what the General is trying to help you with.

These 2 drivers are likely causing problems. Please uninstall the Aladdin program to see if that fixes it:

Thanks John,
The Aladdin hardlock driver supports a software license key hosted in a USB flash drive. If the General is correct about windows updates, there is likely a driver patch available. If we are fully patched (which should be the case), then I'll see if the Aladdin key is still being used. When I get back in tomorrow, I'll check to see and then post back what i do.
Thanks,
Neb

Hi General,
I'd be surprised if windows wasn't up to date, but in conjunction with what usama says below I can see how that may be an issue. The Aladdin key driver is regularly updated via Windows update (under "Hardware"). Once I'm back in tomorrow, I'll check a few things and post back.
Thanks,
Neb
