I have done some searching and can't find anything on my problem. My Dell laptop, can't remember the model number but it's the 17" size with a i3 processor, little over a year old. I get BSOD atleast once every couple days with an USB Bug Code error. I've updated the USB drivers to my knowledge through right clicking on them and hitting update or whatever that option is. I've searched the error #'s I get in the BSOD and really came up with nothing. While on the computer, it makes the beeping noise sparatically that sounds off when you are taking something in and out of the USB port, shortly after that it will BSOD. Anyway, just throwing this out there to see if anyone else has this issue.
 
Could be a power supply issue. Seldom hurts to upgrade the factory supply. Most good aftermarkets like Antec are quieter.

You think this has something to do with a USB Error?... Odd sounding... Not real sure I have the marbles to open up the laptop and start maintenance. I almost feel like there is something physical to it... seems like it BSOD after I pick it up and move it somewhere different or to a different angle.. But then again sometimes it's just random. It is REALLY annoying.
