Blue screen error on update

[Echelon]

I just bought a new laptop, a Toshiba a200-th7 running:

Core 2 Duo 1.6GHz Processor
2GB DDR2 Ram
250GB HDD
ATI HD2600 vid card with 256MB dedicated graphics..
etc.etc.

Any, I've tried to install this freaking game 10 times, with BitDefender on, with it off, firewalls on and off, etc. etc. I can't find any rigup that DOESN'T do a physical memory dump when it finishes the install and tries to connect to update the game. What's my issue here?

The code I get on the bluescreen memory dump is:

STOP: 0x0000008E(0xC0000005,0x81c848f1,0xA87CBA88,0x0000 0000)

Much appreciated!? I'm dying to play this game.
