[SOLVED] Various BSODs

[usasma]

Have you looked at it with Process Explorer as Vir Gnarus suggested?

Otherwise I've gotta wonder about:
XFire
and/or
Evolve Game Tracker by Echobit

I decided to uninstall xfire because I rarely use it compared to steam which does the same thing (but worse)

Fixed the dllhost issue - had to completely disable thumbnail previews, seems dodgy movies cause it to loop over and over.

Btw, can anyone suggest decent C++ books?
I'm between Beginner & Intermediate - so not completely noob ones :)

Here is what I have for my c++ class: http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Problem-Analysis-Program-Introduction/dp/0538798084

I cant remember the exact site I found it at but I was able to buy mine for $42 or so...

It is a pretty nice book, lots of programming examples.

Problems with BSODs have stopped completely now thanks

But still major problems with lag spikes with svchost- I managed to track down services like

IP Helper
Network Location Awareness

basically all crucial network related services that can't be disabled - therefore I thought it has gotta be a driver, so I tried using modded drivers:

but sadly no difference Its a TP-LINK branded PCI-E card with an atheros chip.

Might move to a usb adapter, any suggestions on how to fix the lag spikes?
Or will I have to try changing hardware?

It's not unusual to have non-BSOD issues after fixing BSOD's. I suspect it's because there were a number of issues affecting the crashes.
