I get this BSOD at random times, sometimes it happen right away after waking the computer from sleep, and just last night I was probably on my machine for maube 2 hours and then it crashed with the BSOD 0xc00002a1. I am not sure what is causing. I looked at the dump file but I am not sure what I am suppose to be looking for to find the root problem. Any help would be appreciated.

The additional debug text line is somewhat revealing. I found a page that may help you here:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...rminated/ea20a793-5fe8-4448-9fa2-c3ef45069b87

First thing to look at is drivers and run a virus scan. Also, check your dump files to see if they are all pointing to the same thing. A lot of variance could point to a hardware problem.

If no viruses are found, on thing you can try is unplugging everything USB except the mouse and let it go to sleep. See if it crashes the next time yoy wake it up.
