My laptop has just recently decided to give me major problems.
I boot windows, it stays on for a matter of 5 minutes or so then goes to the blue screen and says something about a memory dump.
Everytime I try to run AVG or go to the control panel to uninstall a program, it freezes and shuts down.
Anyone have any idea what to do.
I have booted in safe mode and run AVG, I have run spybot, Vista wont let me delete programs in safe mode for some reason.
Reps for serious help...

Usually when i run into this, something has gotten corrupted in the registry or system files. Alot of times it requires a format/reinstall of the OS..
Rather than booting into safe mode, have you tried running the "Last known good configuration" ? Ive gotten lucky a few times and was able to use an older version. You can also try and use a previous system restore point if it will let you before it crashes.

sounds like you possibly have something internal about to fail you.

I tried both. I guess whatever is killing my machin was lying dormant for a while because I restored to the oldest point and the machine is still shot.
I am reformatting tonight :(

Once you log into windows, even with problems... it remembers it as its Last Known Good Config.
So that won't work.
If you haven't reformatted send me a msg
