Too many blue screens

I've gotten too many blue screens for comfort. Anyone else been getting blue
screens from Vista in day-to-day operation?

I never seem to get to that place where I feel confident about how the thing
will behave. [Sound fading out in the games on one machine, blue screens on
another, explorer often hangs on another machine]. Funnily enough, the x64
version behaves better for me than the x32 version.

Have you looked in event viewer for a possible cause?

I also have problems with losing the sound in games and have not been able to
locate why. I'm hoping that its just a glitch with my sound card that will be
fixed with new drivers when released

I've been running RC1 since the day it hit the CPP site, no blue screens for
me. It's actually been very stable, and I'm using it 8 hours a day...

Well, I'm going to take Paul Smith's suggestion. If anything happens again,
'will try to discern why.
