My computer has been ginving me the BSOD.  I've done a C:Drive recovery, system recovery, and reset the BIOS. The other day I made the Recovery Discs and going to try a different recovery that's more in depth.  I notice something though. The other times I got BSOD, the bottom would say "dumping physical memory". This time is said "preparing for crash dumping". Since then, my Spam box in my e-mail has been getting tons of spam mail. I don't know if the spam mail is related to that, but I found it kinda odd for it to happen the same time the screen showed up.

It did havea virus on it.  I had AVG and Spybot on here and i was still getting the screen.  But I'm just wondering why this time it said "preparing for crash dumping"

Its probably OS related since you have not yet done a hard reformat. Wipe everything, reinstall your OS and if it happens again, then its a hardware issue.

Although you may have gotten the virus from something in your spam mail, it has absolutely no connection with whats happening now.
