Blue Screen of Death (Windows 7)

Nipun

The computer was running minecraft, was paused, and I was away. Came back after around an hour and found a BSOD.
I tried switching it off directly and starting again, but got same screen again. Tried restarting multiple times but get this screen as soon as desktop loads(before icons appear or just as they appear). Sometimes while trying to start, just motherboard's screen is showing "MSI 880GM E35" & it doesn't proceed. On cutting the power & trying again, it either gets stuck at same screen or windows loads and shoots the death screen.

No new softwares or hardwares have been installed. The game Blur was installed 3 days back, and no changes were made to PC after that.

Configuration:
AMD Phenom II x4 840
MSI 880GM E35
Sapphire HD 6850
CM GX 450 Bronze(?)
RipjawsX 4GB

Help please.

EDIT: I guess this is wrong section. Sorry! :p

EDIT2: Tried booting again. This time it was trying to install some device drivers as soon as desktop appeared and got BSOD in seconds of that message pop-ing up! I have not attached any hardware recently, why would it install them?

Seems like a motherboard or a power supply issue.. Check that out with your local store.. Virus is a no-no from my side. May also very well be the registry, check that out and possibly do a reformat :p
