    The MSINFO file is not populated.

    Follow these instruction: Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions

    Check your installed programs/features and see if Intel Management Engine Interface has been re-installed by Windows automatic updates. If it has, Un-install it and change your update options to Let Me Decide. When it comes back as an update, right click it and select Hide. Do NOT let this software install again. It may also show up in Windows driver updates.

    I have read them. I don't know why MSINFO file was not populated. Did the same thing I had several times before. I will try again.

    Also, Intel Management Engine Interface is not listed on my installed programs/features.

    It looks like the Nvidia drivers you have loaded are not compatable with the motherboard/BIOS. Appearently, you can not use the standard Nvidia drivers from their site. You should be downloading drivers from Dell. I can't remember back but did you check for a BIOS update? The warning below, in red, indicates the driver may not be a valid release.

    System Manufacturer: Alienware
    System Model: M17xR3
    BIOS Version/Date: Alienware A12, 8/20/2012

    Also...
    MEI is still installed as a system driver and it still appears in memory and the IRQ table.


    Code:
     
    DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (9f)
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for nvlddmkm.sys
    *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for nvlddmkm.sys

    Going to mark this one as solved. Have not yet had a BSOD since the... proper, drivers were installed for my video card. Thanks everyone.
