Still getting the exact same error message, as well as what appears to be 1 
- 3 reboots in a row.  It seems to happen mainly between 4am and 5am.  I 
have a few programs (antivirus, Spybot, etc...) set to run around that time, 
so I'll try re-scheduling and see what happens.  This is most annoying 
though.  The fact it happens at roughly the same time every day means it 
can't be a device driver...and why is it even rebooting in the first place? 
  I have it set to NOT reboot when it gets a BSOD.
