    The Intel chipset drivers cause all the BSODs that are present in the zip, 2 BSODs never recorded a minidump and the memory.dmp would've been overwritten already.
    Check if Intel has driver updates, if there are no driver updates try following:
    Remove Intel Rapid Storage Technology applications.
    1. Uninstall it from Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    2. Uninstall the driver from device manager:
    - Right click on "my computer" icon and click "manage" on the context menu.
    - In the "Computer Management" window that opens:
    - Select "Device Manager" in the left pane, It will list all the existing devices.
    - Expand "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" by clicking on the triangle in front of it.
    - Select one Intel device item under it, right click, then uninstall.
    - Repeat the process for all Intel items under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
    3. Now restart the computer.
    4. Once booted, Windows will auto configure the appropriate native system driver.
    Code:
    6: kd> lmvm iaStorA
    Browse full module list
    start             end                 module name
    fffff880`0128e000 fffff880`01914000   iaStorA  T (no symbols)

    I tried to update drivers with no success. So I uninstalled Intel Rapid Storage Technology from the programs list, however, I don't have a section for IDE ATA/ATAPI in my device manager. Here is most of my device manager, maybe it is one of the others?

    EDIT: Google tells me it is the IntelR SATA AHCI Controller under Storage Controllers, which makes sense so I'm going to uninstall that. Lots of websites report that it has errors for lots of people.

    EDIT2: I unistalled the driver for that controller and rebooted, but it still shows the same driver edition and the drivers iaStorA, V, and F are all still listed under the drivers report. But Rapid Storage is gone so maybe I'm good and should just try to get a bsod to confirm? It seems Windows can't find an update to that controller but is this an update for it? Basically should I try to update anything more or leave it? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/dow...Desktop-Boards

    Thanks for the assist so far!

    Don't believe them, there are many problems for many users. If you don't have a problem with it, leave it.

    I unistalled the driver for that controller and rebooted, but it still shows the same driver edition and the drivers iaStorA, V, and F are all still listed under the drivers report.
    A reboot is usually required for the uninstallation IME, after a reboot the drivers are installed again by Windows. Usually the same drivers are installed, but it helps because of corruption or something.

    It seems Windows can't find an update to that controller but is this an update for it? Basically should I try to update anything more or leave it?
    If you checked device manager, correct. Device manager never finds a driver...
