I had this problem for a while, but couldn't figure it out... So, wanted to post this in case someone has troubles in the future.

I had lots of BSOD's while using ANY web browser, mostly on pages with videos and lots of other content. Checked RAM and did a complete reinstall of OS... Thought that motherboard might be at fault, but everything is running like butter after i uninstalled NOD32 (disabling it doesn't do anything)

Nod32? It's been good few years since they changed name to Eset, no wonders you get BSOD's with so outdated prodct.

Yeah, "Nod32" brings back old memoroies. I used it a lot before I switched to MSE.

they call it "ESET NOD32 antivirus", not just ESET. And it was fully updated.
