Thanks for the log files. These show that the BSOD is in the NVIDIA driver. Looking at your system specs, the NVIDIA driver is old:

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7950 GTX (NVIDIA)
Graphics Driver: 7.15.11.7967 Dated 2009/03/06

Infact this is released before Windows 7 was released and is probably their Vista graphics driver that works "well enough" on Windows 7 for normal use.

We use the GPU on Windows 7 in a different way that NVIDIA probably tested, so it can expose bugs in the NVIDIA driver. Normally I would suggest updating the NVIDIA driver to the latest version, but it doesn't look like they have a more recent driver.

Unfortunately I don't think there will be anything we can do to work around the BSOD issues on the GPU, that doesn't have a recent Windows 7 driver. In v6.3 we fixed basic graphics theme comparability, and I suspect this increase of GPU changes and interaction exposed another bug in the NVIDIA driver that is causing the blue screen.
