Yep. I've actually already removed SPTD a few days ago when troubleshooting the mouse problem.
So running Avast with MSE would complement each other?

I still saw sptd in the latest dump you uploaded.
Apparently they will according to the security folks here. As I said, I have not tried it myself. I don't really see the need considering how I operate. After you get your system running smoothly, give it a try. But first, lets make sure your problem is solved.
Yeah, that dump was from before I'd started troubleshooting, which explains the SPTD, since I didn't start trying to fix the problem until the next day or so. Well, I hope it works this time, and thanks for all the help! :)
Ah, that explains it. OK, run your system and if you get another BSOD, upload it. If you don't post back in a couple of days and let us know how your system is doing.
Ugh, it wouldn't shut down again last night, so I just let it BSOD this morning and here are the dump reports. Popup (saved as text), minidump, and the system log temp file, zipped up here.
The jcgriff-formatted BSOD report has also been put up.
Hmm...now we're getting somewhere. It looks like your Creative Sound Blaster drivers are the cause, from the latest dump. They appear to be the default Windows 7 drivers, so you should be able to find an update.

Oh man, I hope this time the drivers won't mess up my computer. Last time, I updated from Windows Update and it totally blew up my machine.
On the other hand, in Device Manager, there are yellow exclamation points next to all of my portable devices. This just happened today. Could this also be causing a problem?
If you right-click on the devices and select Properties, what does the explanation of the error mean?
If you are concerned, be sure to create a restore point before installing the drivers. That way you can restore if need be.
System Restore Point - Create
Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)
It says that for all five of the devices.
