I went and successfully updated my driver from the link you provided. Thanks! Here's a shot.

Laptop restarted fine and accepted the driver without having a conniption. We'll see if my BSoDs flare up in the next day or so. Let me know if there's anything else I can do in the meantime. We'll be in touch!
Ok, let me know how it works for you. Could you give me the full model number for your laptop? Maybe I can find out something.
Sure thing. I believe I saved this in the last few days, from the HP site. I figured it might come in handy!
HP Pavilion dv6t-7000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC
Product Number: A3E83AV

Thanks, I'll look in the morning. It's late for me. I'm about 2 hours ahead of you and probably several years ahead too.
No problem at all, my friend! I appreciate all your help! We'll be in touch. :)
Just had a BSoD referencing iaStorA.sys. The battle continues, haha.
Certainly. Here we are.

Would you just look, do not change a thing, Go to BIOS startup I believe it is F10, either that or escape key on startup, then F10. Go to System Configuration/Device Configurations/ and tell me what it is set to and what options you have. If you change anything you will not be able to boot into Windows.
Alrighty.
I pressed F10 on startup, and I launched into BIOS, labeled "InsydeH2O Setup Utility".
I had 4 options at the top: Main, Security, System Configuration, Exit.
In System Configuration, this is what I got...
Language -- <English>
Virtualization Technology -- <Disabled>
Card Reader Power Saving -- <Enabled>
Fan Always On -- <Enabled>
Action Keys Mode -- <Enabled>
USB3.0 Configuration in Pre-OS -- <Auto>
Intel Rapid Start Technology -- <Enabled>
> Boot Options
That's it. Under the "Main" option, the only thing mentioning "configuration" is Product configuration ID, which is 0790100000205710000620100.
