this story on Neowin recently came out:
apparently there's a "fix" available from Windows Update for some HP users in the form of an “HP Software Component 4.1.4.3079” driver. can Hewlett-Packard (HP) confirm this?

Peace be unto you, I have a few steps that should help resolve this concern:

Description and Symptoms
The error messages, alerts, warnings, and symptoms below are tied to this error.
The error indicates that the system error handler couldn’t catch an exception generated by a kernel mode program. It’s mostly displayed as a Blue Screen Error (BSOD) or a STOP code. When this happens, the computer shuts down abruptly.
The error can be caused by one of the following situations:
- Hardware problems
- Incompatibility with device drivers
- Corrupt system services
- Recently installed software applications that might be incompatible with your Windows versions
Cause 1: Faulty RAM module
The most common cause of this error is a faulty RAM module that periodically gives read/write errors. If that’s the case, then it is advisable to scan the system memory and replace the faulty RAM module.
Cause 2: Corrupt or outdated device drivers
Sometimes the device drivers may become misconfigured, corrupt or outdated. That may also happen after a Windows update or a Windows downgrade from a newer system to an older one.
