I've concluded that it is in fact a problem with my network
driver, I started up Windows in safe mode, went into Device Manager and disabled my network driver. I then rebooted and started up normally, and this time, no crash. Of course, no networking at all though, so I didn't really solve much, it wasnt much better than safe mode in this state. How do I do a driver rollback? By the way, I've already tried system restore and system repair twice each, didn't help.
