Blue Screen on HP 6000 workstation

We are having multiple windows xp, hp 6000 machines that are randomly blue screening. In checking the event viewer, multiple errors show up as Intel(R) 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection
 Network link is disconnected.

We have been replacing the motherboards, but still the issue happens, only on random computers, roughly 10 workstations so far. I have updated the bios, set the power management in the bios to "normal" and updated the latest drivers for the network card. Still no luck.
Any idea on how to proceed?

Have you got the BSOD ID error, the link may disconnecting may be a seperate issue.

There should be a mini-dump file generated with each BSOD.  Either follow the instructions in the article, to find out the offending file or attach one and I can look at it.

This will give you a good idea of what is causing the crashes.

Let me know if this makes sense?

Ok. Viewing the minidump file, it shows the following. Could it be the video driver, and if so, what do all the network errors in the event viewer mean?

I am going to update the video driver after uninstalling it, then check the event viewer for those Intel(R) 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection errors. Will let you know today
Did you get anywhere with this?

Well, it appears that it fixed the issue. I updated the video drivers on all of the blue screen workstations, and no issues have been reported. Very strange, but I think it is fixed. Thanks for all the help
