Well..   the power supply is not it.... BSOD again.  My daughter shut down, 
so I don't know what it was.

Maybe one driver???  This has been going on a year and a half and I cannot 
for the life of me figure out what it could be.  Even Viewer has nothing... 
right click my computer, and there are no 'exclamation points'...where else 
can I look???

Thank you.. I am literally at whit's end....
