Well, I did finally manage to get on after the Restore. I updated my video driver, loaded the software and ran Duxa's utility. Lo and Behold, I was able to log in. I managed to play for a few hours and the PC crashed again. Same problem of BSOD as soon as the internet connected. Had to Restore again to keep the PC up and running. HELP!

those are some weird weird errors.... BSOD upon internet connection??

What are your computer's specs, old, new?

Did you download official video driver or some of those hacked drivers that supposedly offer better performance but less stability?

PC is about 8 months old. Compaq (HP) AMD Athlon II 170u Processor (2 GHz), 2 GB RAM, Windows 7 64-bit. Windows found and installed the video driver. Thought maybe the device driver for the network card might need updating, too, but Windows said it was up to date. It's the weirdest thing I've ever seen. PC crashes and reboots and then won't connect to internet until I hard-reset the router. As soon as connectivity is established, BSOD again.
