Blue screen of death on Dell Laptop..

Hello Clever people, I wondered if any of you could help me.

I've got a Dell inspiron 1300, and it has just started (last week or so) to crash, especially when burning (particularly finishing burning) dvds and sometimes cds.

I installed a divx bundle a month or so ago, and when I googled the error codes it seemed to be the culprit.

I uninstalled that, no improvement.

I then uninstalled and reinstalled (from the original dell cds) the mySonic DVDle software, and thought that had fixed it, but today it's crashed twice.

I have a Dell diagnostic cd here, and also another pc with net access.

What should I do first?

I've got AVG, zonealarm and spybotscan, and have run ccleaner.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for replying.

It does make some fan noises, and gets warm a bit.

Do I not need spybot if I have AVG then?

(I thought spyware would not neccesarily be picked up by a virus scanner)

Any help at all would be much appreciated.

Not that I recall, The error log only showed the codes above.

Next time it does it i'll copy the lot down.

Like I said, I've got the Dell diagnostic disc, I could run that?
