Hi, I need help identifying why my desktop crashes when booting (usually somewhere around when the logon prompt is displayed). It doesn't happen everytime, just sometimes. The computer has Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. The boutique manufacturer who built the computer cannot help identify the issue. They've updated most, if not all drivers to the latest version. I have uploaded two .dmp files that I think should be helpful. Can anyone help? Thank you. https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=fc0fe2d52beb7371&resid=FC0FE2D52BEB7371!117&parid=FC0FE2D52BEB7371!116&authkey=!ANhC4kYeUo1bGtU
