Windows 8 BSOD - Help needed to identify cause

Hi, keep on receiving a bsod at random intervals. Need some assistance determining what component is causing the problem. This only started happening since upgrading from windows 7 to windows 8. Thanks!
Attached is the minidump file. Performed analysis and states atpi.sys is the cause.

Hi,
Is there a way to identify which attached disk is causing the cash. I would like to zero in on the exact disk that is causing issue.
Thanks

You might need simply update the mobo drivers. Check at mobo vendor's website for newest drivers.
I actually cannot get updated drivers from the mobo manufacturer for win 8, they only win 7 available.

Are you using any Virtual Sofware?
Either update or uninstall as it may not be compatible with Windows 8.
eg: VPC, VirtualBox, Daemon Tools, Alcohol 120, PowerISO, MagicDisc.
