This bug check is issued if paged memory (or invalid memory) is accessed when the IRQL is too high.
The error that generates this bug check usually occurs after the installation of a faulty device driver, system service, or BIOS.
If you encounter bug check 0xA while upgrading to a later version of Windows, this error might be caused by a device driver, a system service, a virus scanner, or a backup tool that is incompatible with the new version.

So is there any way to find what exactly is causing it? or should i just take advantage of the 1 year warranty and hope i dont lose all my stuff?

See if there is any drivers that needs to be updated[DOUBLEPOST=1359713661][/DOUBLEPOST]In worst case senario - do a backup of what you want to save and do a restore
