    My laptop is acer: T2050, 512M,7300graphic.

    I have both XP and vista on this laptop.

    The XP is just fine.

    But vista sometimes turn to blue screen when startup,(please note, only sometimes, just before loads the desktop, it turns blue and restart). Sometimes it is OK.

    I think it is a driver problem, because I see "driver_********" on the blue screen.

    Please help how to sovle this problem, I don't want to re-install everything again.

    Not to be insensitive but ahahahhahah Vista is getting the dreaded BOSD before you can use it. It just proves how bad the OS is. Anyways, sorry about my ranting, the go to safe mode and uninstall any software or driver that you did before it stopped working. Otherwise, you could also do a system restore.
