Default Blue Screen of Death/Direct X

Hello,

I previously posted about this but didn't get a response. In this post I'll include more detailed information. I hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting twice about the same problem, I'm just hoping someone knows more about computers than I do (if I'm being obnoxious here I apologize).

I've been consistently getting the dreaded Blue Screen of Death while playing, and I'm starting to worry that this might relate to the P99 program itself. I've reformatted my hard drive, and purchased new memory which is specific to my laptop, and moved my hard drive into a different computer, just to rule out possible causes. Now I'm getting the Blue Screen less often, about once a day, but it still sucks.

It seems the Blue Screen references the following file nowadays:

dxgkrnl.sys

Which I suspect is related to Direct X. I've run dxdiag and it found no problems with Direct X.

I'm running Project 1999 on an HP Elitebook 2540p laptop, with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, my ISP is Cox Communications.

Does everyone get the Blue Screen of Death from time to time while playing? A friend who knows a lot more about computers than I do suggests this may be related to the P99 program itself, though I hasten to note I don't believe that and I certainly wouldn't point fingers at the people who make P99 possible in the first place -- I'm enjoying it tremendously :-)

Thanks for reading.
