Sorry to hear about that.

Windows isn't a closed hardware platform like OS X, so driver support can be difficult (Windows update helps a lot on that).

Also, are you overclocking? Using a 4-year-old motherboard? There has to be some reason for BSOD - it's not a normal condition. Not making excuses, hundreds of millions of machines run for years without doing it.
