It sounds like they are all directing you to hardware errors and there is a strong possibility that is the issue. It is actually a more common in home-brew machines that people build from random parts. It is statistically better to use a manufactured workstation
like an IBM, Gateway, Dell, etc. because the hardware has been tested together. This is an advantage that Apple has in that they only let you use their hardware. As a result it is a more controlled environment with fewer variables which is an advantage stability wise since they control both the hardware and software. The blue screen can at times be difficult to interpret (at least for me) it is easier and faster to troubleshoot by updating drivers, swapping memory, video card, etc. Your blue screen is clearly indicating a hardware issue and it is most likely that or a driver that makes the hardware look bad. Good luck, I hope you get it resolved. Please let us know if you do.

Cheers,

Gary
