Hi and welcome to Seven Forums,

If you are overclocking any hardware, please stop.


Please remove the following software:

Code:

Driver Genius Professional Edition

It is not recommended to use automated driver update software. The software often finds drivers for devices that are similar but not the same as the devices in your system. This can lead to conflict issues and BSOD's. If you cannot find the driver for a specific device, create a thread here: Drivers - Windows 7 Forums so we can help you. In fact, it is not always necessary to update drivers and sometimes updating them can decrease system stability. It it ain't broke, don't fix it!


I have noticed that you do not have an anti-virus product installed on your PC. Please install Microsoft Security Essentials and scan your PC. Then install and scan your computer with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. DO NOT START THE FREE TRIAL. This will remove any viruses you may have caught.


Taking a look at your dumps, a lot of the show the the cause as being genuine Intel. This suggests to me that there is a hardware issue.

As a result I recommend you check your hardware for issues. Please run Memtest86+ to check your RAM. Let it run for 6-8 passes overnight as described in the tutorial. Pay particular attention to parts 2 and 3.

Also check your HDD for errors using Seatools. Download and create a bootable version of the Seatools for DOS program as described here

If you have any questions, feel free to ask,

Just a note, not being nit-picky or rude, but could you please use some punctuation (full stops, capital letters etc.) in your posts? It would make my life easier.

Could you please run through the memtest and seatools tests and report back once they have completed. Once you do that, I can rule out the RAM and then focus on the CPU. It is possible that there are CPU issues but I can't say without running some tests.

It is also possible running the SFC /Scannow command could have stabilised the system, you might have just had some corrupt system files. If you get any more BSOD's, run back through the https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...tructions.html and upload the file to another post so I can look at the dumps.
