Hi,
I'll move your thread across but as Neem's wrote above there are no dump files in the zip. It might be the case that your machine isn't configured properly to produce them..
If there doesn't appear to be any dump files then you'll need to change your settings so that they're created when the machine bsods.
Open the run application.
Type sysdm.cpl in the run box and click ok.
Look across the top of the system properties box for 'Advanced' and click that.
Look for 'Startup and Recovery' near the bottom and click 'settings'.
Near the bottom you'll see a drop down menu under the heading 'write debugging information'.
In the drop down menu choose ' small memory dump (256KB)'
Under 'small dump directory' make sure it says %SystemRoot%\Minidump.
Click ok and your good to go.
Another reason for no dump creation is when the pagefile has been turned off.

My apologies, this is not a BSOD and this thread can be deleted.
Something made the computer reboot but it was not the result of a BSOD.
I'll place the thread somewhere else.

You can determine what initiated a reboot as follows.
- Open Event Viewer
- Select the System log
- On the right, select "Filter Current Log..."
- Change "Event Source" to User32
- That should tell you everything that shutdown or reboot the computer
