Perhaps /morblore/ can tell us which driver it is that requires updating. I am getting exactly the same BSOD. The crash is rare, once every two days, but annoying as heck.
I have updated everything I know to update, but Dell is not helping and likely won't considering that they are also abandoning support for the video driver.

The BSOD code will tell you that.
