Your log file shows a VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT Guru Meditation. Any special action you do to trigger this Guru Meditation?

Nope just using the computer normally. I do however think I have the problem solved. I have been stable for 23 Hours now. "Crossing my fingers!" I had two other mini dumps from previous days. I ran windows minidump debugger and ran across a file netio.sys. I updated the Intel 100/1000 driver and so far keeping fingers crossed the system is stable and has not locked up yet. I will post again tomorrow with my findings. I also gave it a little bit more video memory and enabled 2d support. Thanks Steven

Very Stable now and has been running almost 2 days now and no random reboots or crashes. Updated NIC Drives have solved the issue. To be specific the version of the driver working is 8.3.15.0 9/23/2008 For the Intel Pro/1000MT Desktop Driver.
