Make sure that your power supply can handle the load. It sounds like your system requires a lot of juice.
I’ve installed W764bit in my Windows Vista 32 laptop, and I’ve found out that in many cases W7 requires exclusive drivers (for video cards and such) Make sure you check your peripherals’ manufacturer websites and download the latest drivers for W7 64 bit. Some 32bit programs work, but others don’t–itunes is a good example, as I had to download the 64-bit-itunes from Apple cause the old one didn’t work. The same thing happened with ESET Nod32.

What exactly does the BSOD say? It’s probably a video driver failure, but to be sure, see what file is causing the BSOD. If it is a video driver failure, go the nvidia’s website and redownload (or upgrade, if one is available), your video driver.
