Angry HD Content on my PC causes BSOD's

If I attempt to play any sort of HD content on my PC regardless if its a Blu-Ray disc or HD-DVD, it will eventually give me a BSOD. Whats odd is that it isnt an immediate thing or one that I can time when it will occur, its very random. It could be 5 seconds into play to 10 minutes but it always hard crashes my PC and forces me to restart. Ive tried just about everything in the book to attempt to get movies to play on my computer and all of it has failed. At first I thought it was video card drivers so I updated those, then I thought it was firmware, so I updated that. Then I thought it could be codecs so I tried new ones, then I thought maybe I should update my BIOS, then I tried updating my OS, then I tried formatting and reinstalling my OS and so on and so on. Today I thought if I would install the latest AnyDVD HD 6.4.0.0 and PowerDVD 7430a that it might work and I am still getting the same result.

I have come to the conclusion that either 1. PowerDVD just sucks and is a very crappy piece of software or 2. ATI needs to fire all of their developers who write the code behind their drivers.

Heres my PC specs in case any of you have any ideas...

2GB DDR2 RAM @ 1066
Asus G33 Mobo
ATI Radeon HD3870
WD 250GB SATA II Hard Drive
