*Enters Ren's Bar and gets a drink and sits down*
So I have found out why I have been getting BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) on my PC...
Hot/Cold Room...
Normaly I would say to keep your PC cool is the best think you can do but in this case I cant. Let me Explain how I know this for my PC
Last week Wales had very nice hot weather and my Office has 2 windows and the sun shines into one of them, it heats my Office up very nicely but I have to open the other Window so i can keep cool. but as i found out my PC dont give me a BSOD when my Office is Hot, so when this hot weather went away my office became cold and not hot but not that cold too, That is when my PC started giving me BSOD again...
*Has a bit of his Drink*
So Sunday just gone I do my own test after i had 2 BSOD within 30 Mins. I used my Heater to het the office hot... Me now sweating yet again and my PC in a hot room never had a BSOD for the rest of the day, my PC is not normal at all... so it is either:
1. not use my PC in cold weather just when its hot.
OR
2. Sweat my.. Toe's off with the heater on.
Sunday i did 2. but that would cost more money i dont have... :/
*Drinks more of his Drink*

Could i be nosy and ask what cooling systems your are using (and case)?
You could consider placing the computer into a cupboard, so it heats its own surroundings. (although i would ensure you had some temp monitors to prevent overheating damage)

Definitely a strange issue. I always thought BSOD was usually a software/driver issue or hardware conflict. If it does it again take a photo and post it up so we can have a look at the message displayed.
