Peter, as Marc implies, apps can't cause a BSOD. (At least not in Windows NT/XP/2000/Vista/7/2008.) It has the be something like drivers, and USB is a common source. Jiggle a cable and many drivers can't cope. Error recovery and its consequences is often overlooked.

If you have auto-restart turned on you could turn it off and you can note down the error code and the module it is blaming. Then reboot and a Google search will usually turn up the culprit.

Rolling back or upgrading drivers is usually effective. Also check all your connectors are firm in their sockets. It might be as simple as replacing a dodgy cable.
