I don't know if any of you guys ever experience this. Everytime I use Skype I gat t fatal error in vista.. Its some sort of Blue Screen that gives a countdown to start the machine. And after starting it looks like improper shutdown coz Vista is asking an options to boot on safe mode.

I have check for Bios Upadte and it seems my current bios is updated. I have tried it on XP and it works better (means it only happens once).

Any suggestion how to solve this.

Check/update audio drivers. Also make sure you are using the proper driver versions for your OS...64 bit drivers if you are running 64 bit Vista.
