Maybe if you spell it 'Kernel' it will stop getting annoyed with you?

Maybe this will help.

Maybe but you will still annoy me..... ::) :P Sadly that article tells me nada. Hoping Dweez might of seen this somewhere and can add a suggestion or 2. This is a really wide spread issue with Vista/7 so how knows.

Most of the articles about that event point to it being a 'driver' issue although there is no obvious culprit in each case. However, I presume that you have already checked for driver conflicts or out of date drivers that are having trouble with windows 7, and I also presume you have unplugged unnecessary external hardware to see if there is any improvement, so you can rule those out.
You might want to try and connect what you are doing at the time, with the time of the event to see if it is a specific software issue and is this happening with a desktop or laptop/notebook?

For awhile I thought it might have something to do with using a media player and online programs at the same time but it has happened without having a player running to. So I would need to look for a video card driver if that were the case right? Its not a CPU thing because Im running audits on the CPU and nothing shows up in the way of overuse there.......

So it's a desktop comp then?
Are you getting any DHCP connection errors in your log too?
It is worth checking your drivers for a misconfiguration or other errors but I presume nothing is flagged in your system devices?

The screen shot of the Event Log doesn't tell us anything about what caused the problem, just that the machine shut down ungracefully. I use www.eventid.net a lot for troubleshooting event log errors and for "Event ID: 41, Source: Kernel-Power" there were actually 2 pages of info.
*NOTE* EventID.Net's comments are user submissions so, while not as bad as Wikipedia, you do need to have your brain engaged when reading them.
Here is the first page, http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=41&eventno=9230&source=Kernel-Power&phase=1 , and it links to troubleshooting the "Sleep/Hibernate" feature of http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/vista/vista_hibernate.htm . Vista and Windows 7 are similar enough that this might be helpful.
The second page on EventID.net is simply stating what I said in my first sentence, that the event log entry doesn't give us any actual info about what caused the crash, just that the system had crashed. It then lists some follow-up maintenance you can perform on your system, http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=41&eventno=10602&source=Kernel-Power&phase=1 .
Personally, I've had BSoD's on Win7 but only a few and never multiple so I have always just chalked them up to a rogue app that maybe wasn't quite ready for Win7.

Windows' errors were intentionally designed to give lesser mortals something to talk about - but you already know that eh.
