The drivers are up-to-date and I have already reinstalled the system
three times to narrow down the problem.
Only drivers shipping with Windows are now used, no third party drivers.

The hard-drive has been checked and there was no problem found either,
so the raise condition between TSVN and the indexer triggers a problem
with Windows.

Thunderbird supports adding the messages to the search indexer, since
they are placed in the APPDATA folder structure, which is excluded by
default.

In general this was more meant as a hint for the users, since you 
already told me that a BSOD might only be raised by a driver.
In addition, the indexer might use a driver, who knows.
Even Process Explorer uses a driver and anti virus software uses drivers 
too.
So it might not be a hardware issue at all, but one with a software driver.
