Have you performed the rest of the steps, if yes what were the results.
I won't ask this question again.

So I did all the steps.
The only step that didn't pass was the Hard Drive Diagnostic thru the CD. It didn't even recognize my HDD.
Windows is not corrupted as the scan showed no files missing.
Memtest passed with 10 passes.
I also cleaned up my startup.
So it looks like my HDD might be causing the problem?
Any new BSOD's after making those changes?
Kaspersky TDSSKiller - How to remove malware belonging to the family Rootkit.Win32.TDSS (aka Tidserv, TDSServ, Alureon)

As of right now no. But I haven't played any games recently as it only happened when I was gaming.
I will let you know ASAP.
Okay, keep a check on the temps when you're gaming.
Heat:
-Only use the laptop on a hard surface with nothing blocking any of the vents.
-Use a laptop cooling pad if possible
-Blow out all vents with canned air (DO NOT use a vacuum cleaner or an air compressor, they can damage the components).
-Ensure that the fan comes on and is blowing air out of the vent (may not happen at startup, but should happen after using it for a while).
System Temperature
Ensure that there are no heat issues, For monitoring heat of the system use Speccy or HWMonitor
I used HWMonitor and I saved the monitor thing. Should I upload it here?
Well here it is.
