ITUNES downloads from store causing BSOD windows stop error- Please Help!

Hi everyone,
maybe someone can help me out or knows how to fix this problem.
Problem in detail:
This problem started since I updated to the latest version of itunes 7 to download video for my ipod video 30gb. Itunes worked perfect on my computer before updating as I used it with an ipod mini.
I was able to use my new IPOD 30gb fine and transfer all my music to it correctly.
The main problem occurrs when downloading anything from itunes store...1st noticed this when my podcasts were updating and downloading and then the system suddenly crashed with the windows blue screen error message and had to reboot. This happened multiple times so I disabled the automatic downloads of podcasts. Itunes then works fine when not downloading anything.
I then tried purchasing a TV show, whole series, and when it began downloading, the Exact same Error and Blue screen will occur--Very Frustrating.
I uninstalled ITUNES and Quicktime, and then reinstalled them via the latest download from itunes. The same errors still occur.
When windows reboots and sends error report to Microsoft, it states the error is due to a Driver error of which the specific driver is not known.
I have called apple/itunes support and spoke with them and they could not figure out the problem and said I should check with my computers cust service and/or microsoft as it was probably something on this end...I did this and they stated the problem must be something with itunes and especially since all other programs run fine on my system.
SO basically I am going in circles trying to figure this out so I am hoping someone here may know how to fix this problem.
Not only that, but I tried the same on my desktop as I figured I could at least download my podcasts and purchases to my desktop and then transfer to my ipod from there(as I am mainly using my labtop for my ipod) and updated my desktop to itunes 7 latest version,, and figured it would work on my desktop with same operating system----but it Caused the SAME error BSOD as my labtop and in same fashion....only when downloading from itunes.
ANy help is much appreciated as I got the ipod video mainly because of ITUNES video content and podcasts and if I cannot use these major functions on ITUNES than This Was a Complete Waste for me to get the Video IPOD.
Hope there is a way to fix
Thanks

I afraid can’t help much with this, but no one else
has answered. It does seem very odd that two
different computers have the same problem. It makes
you wonder about the content you were trying to
download. As a matter of interest was the
installation for both computers done from the same
download file?
When your computer dies, can you read the stop
message or does it disappear, if it does, go to
Control Panel>System>Advanced
Click Settings in Start Up and Recovery and make sure
that Automatically Restart is no checked.
You should be able to get a stop number from the blue
screen and you may also be able to identify the
filename of a driver, which could give a clue to the
problem.
The Microsoft Website has a certain amount of help on
specific stop messages, you can search for the number
of the stop message which will be something like
0x0000000A.
There is also some help on troubleshooting stop
messages here:

Thanks for your reply.
As far as the content being downloaded from itunes---consisted of different podcasts and also on a separate occasion-the tv show Heroes complete season on ITUNES..So I would guess the error has nothing to do with the content being downloaded.
The ITUNES installation for both computers was from the same itunes download file on this website on apples itunes free download.
I did not write down the most recent stop numbers and no drivers seemed to be named on the blue screen from what I could tell, but I guess I could be missing something...
From a previous crash with the BSOD- the error message listed was this: STOP: 0x00000050 (0xbad0b158, 0x00000000, 0x8056ea22, 00000002)
not sure if this helps maybe figure out the cause of this or not.
Maybe this will help get to the bottom of this.
Thanks

  • GeForce FX5600 128 - Causes BSOD and STOP Error

    Hi everyone,
    I recently upgraded my Fathers computer from Win ME to XP (SP1), and I now cannot run Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. It ran perfectly under ME, and I haven't changed any hardware during the upgrade.
    As soon as the game starts (plane on the runway) I get a blue screen and a 'STOP' error: *** STOP: 0x00000050 (0XC967C967, 0X00000000, 0X8053CDD1, 0x00000000)
    By turning off all 3dfx functions in the game settings, or by turning off hardware acceleration in Windows we have managed to get into the game, but the graphics are poor and so slow its unplayable.
    Apart from this, the system is working perfectly with no other problems when running normal windows apps. I have no other games to try the 3dfx functions on.
    The hardware configuration is:
    GeForce FX5600 128 graphics card
    512 mb RAM
    AMD Athlon 1.4Ghz processor.
    The software configuration is:
    Direct X 9b (same version as was being used to run the game under ME)
    Nvidia drivers tried:
    Nvidia VGA Driver 61.77 for Win XP/2000 (not WHQL)
    Nvidia VGA Driver available through windows update (WHQL – though I can't remember the driver number)
    Also tried an old driver 43.?? that came with the video card. The problem is always the same.
    I have run dxdiag and initially it told me that the 61.77 drivers were not WHQL certified. After then running windows update it downloaded a driver which shows as WHQL certified (I do not know the version of this driver), I ran dxdiag again, and the system reported no problems. I successfully completed all direct draw and direct 3d tests under the dxdiag program, with no problems reported.
    I have been in contact with Microsoft FS9 support initially, who later passed me to the operating system department as they had no luck in finding the fault. They tell me its a hardware issue and I should contact the manufacturer.  
    So far I have tried creating a (completely bare) parallel Windows XP installation and running the game in that, again the same problem occurs.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to resolve this problem? I have an opportunity this weekend to remove XP and go back to ME, which I am planning to do unless anyone has any thoughts on how I might fix this issue?
    Many thanks in advance, John

    Been running the Memtest86+ overnight on one stick and it came up with some 1690 errors... 
    Just stuck the other in now and leaving it run for a couple of hours... Not holding my breath though. Already sent my supplier an email to expect them in the post for a refund. Time to go down the old branded RAM route. Any suggestions for rock solid RAM that won't break the bank?
    Thanks once again fellas,

  • Creating PDF files from Quark causes font/image issues. PLEASE HELP.

    After creating a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat Professional (using the file>Export to PDF option) from QuarkXPress version 7.3, my client sees and prints distorted letters with various fonts and they even sometimes see lines where they shouldn't be. I don't see these issues on my end, even when I print the documents. For example, I may have a headline of four words, the top of the words are shifted to one side, or sometimes even the top half of the letters are in a different color. Please help soon before I lose my clients... or my mind. Thanks.

    We don't use Quark anymore, but I seem to remember that the export to pdf does not use Acrobat Distiller. It is Quark's own pdf maker. If the customer does have Acrobat Professional, then get them to print to the Adobe PDF 'printer' and seeif they get the same problem. They may need to open the Distiller app to set which output settings are used.

    I keep getting the error 306 cannot connect to the iTunes Network when downloading songs on iTunes. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps from the forums and my technical issues are still unresolved. I have Windows 7. Please help!!

    iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
    Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
    To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings  ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1490 ) and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
    To reset iTunes Store cache:
    In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
    Click the Advanced tab.
    Click the "Reset cache" button.
    Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
    Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
    Open iTunes.
    Access iTunes preferences:
    On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
    On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Parental Controls tab.
    Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.
    For more information on parental controls or content filtering software, see iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store.

  • Windows 8.1 account limit problem when downloading from store

    I need to download more than 25 free apps from the store
    on each tablet. Putting the same account don't work. (comes up with an error after putting on to many devices that you cant use this account now).
    Whats the best way to do this ? and what if I need to download a paid app ?
    Thank You.

    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes.  At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.

  • Delete songs not downloaded from store

    deleting songs never downloaded from store (just listened to)?

    Is there a question here I missed?
    If they were not downloaded, how did you listen to them?
    Previewing them in the iTunes store does not add them to your library.

    Would appreciate help...its driving me up the wall!!

    Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
    Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
    If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

    I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
    Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again.
