Hi,
The BSOD seems to be caused by something that's connected to your USB and Synaptics touch pad driver.
Try reinstalling the drivers for it or disable it.

Might as well list some problematic software for you:
Replace AVG with Microsoft Security Essentials. MSE is free, light weight and does not create problems on the Windows 7 OS. :)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
Daemon tools is known to cause BSOD. Please uninstall it.
Free up your start-up as well:
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.
