    Hi,

    The BSOD seems to be caused by something that's connected to your USB and Synaptics touch pad driver.
    Code:
    0: kd> !irp fffffa800bb0e7f0
    Irp is active with 9 stacks 8 is current (= 0xfffffa800bb0eab8)
     No Mdl: No System Buffer: Thread 00000000:  Irp stack trace.

    Try reinstalling the drivers for it or disable it. You might also find this tutorial helpful:


    Might as well list some problematic software for you:
    Code:
    Start Menu\Programs\AVG	Public:Start Menu\Programs\AVG	Public
    Start Menu\Programs\DAEMON Tools Lite	Public:Start Menu\Programs\DAEMON Tools Lite	Public
    Replace AVG with Microsoft Security Essentials. MSE is free, light weight and does not create problems on the Windows 7 OS. :)

    Daemon tools is known to cause BSOD. Please uninstall it.

    Free up your start-up as well:

    So can I use Avast instead of MSE? I used MSE before but it kept asking me to update it.

    So how about VirtualClone drive? does it cause BSOD since you said Daemon Tools does.

    Yes, all the iso mounting tools are crash prone. Among them Daemon tools is max, but all of them.
    Without mounting to a drive, better you unpack the iso. 7-ZIP can do it.

    Oh and sometimes, all of the sudden, it all lags and I have to restart it. After the first restart, I need to restart again because the slow-motion aero (mentioned this many times now) Not just aero, but everything, even while playing games.

    After the first time messed up my laptop, I think it is all ****ed up now...

    Did you reinstall windows on this new laptop? Reinstalliing may help you get rid of all the bloatware.
    The sfc /scannow command (System File Checker) scans the integrity of all protected Windows 7 system files and replaces incorrect corrupted, changed/modified, or damaged versions with the correct versions if possible

    The first time I mess it up so badly, formatted the hard drive and installed a clean os on it. The lag thing, turns out I can solve it by opening the lenovos power manager and enabling turbo.
    When it lags, the process rundll32.exe is using so much memory. The file locates in windows/system32 I guess it's normal?

    Try this way.
    Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7
    After you have a clean fresh install....

    Some hardware tests to run.

    Graphics card:
    https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/100356-video-card-stress-test-furmark.html#post866972


    Hard drive(s):
    Pick one for your HDD brand or use Seatools.
    7 Free Hard Drive Testing Software Tools


    RAM (memory):
    This will require memtest on a bootable CD or USB stick.
    RAM - Test with Memtest86+

    If you have a 32 bit OS, you can only use about 3.5GB of RAM.
