I have a machine that will reboot randomly and when it comes back up it tells you it did so because of a device driver, but it doesn't say which. This particular user has quite a few devices/upgrades and I'm wondering if there is a utility out there that could help me narrow down the faulty file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

What is the exact error message? Normally, blue screens will log an event in the Event Viewer with several 0x0 codes, these codes will help to figure out what device is causing the problem.


The above site has common BSoD error codes and some fixes for them, it may be a place o start.
