well its been this way since close to the week i bought it, so i dont think drivers are the issue, and even though i should update the drivers, the hp update website downloads are not working right now.

i know this is probably a stupid question, but would downloading sp1 help, or just be a big waste of time??

I have the same problem bsod with ataport.sys on vhp, so far i hav found it is not a problem with the ram (Memory) it seems to be pointing to the hard drive i have just done a check disk and that did not find anything, Funny thing is if you do a disk defreg IT WILL BLUE SCREEN i have seen that in Vista there seems to be schedule for disk defrag to get this right click your system drive C: click on properties then on the top tabs you see tools, click on that. now you need to click on defagment now you will then see that there is a tick in the box for schedule take the tick out and everything will be fine

start up in safe mode (F8) and unisntall any software or hardware rcently installed
INCLUDING ANTIVIRUSES
if it doesnt work reinstall your os and install all drivers needed for this not to happen again
last solution:warranty

Why don't you run the OS install CD and do a repair. Often that takes care of it. At worst, you may have to re-install the OS. I have seen this happen with a brand new M1330 on Vista Ultimate. My buddy reformatted and it never happened again. Hope that helps!
