    Given the error codes i feel it would be wise to run full hardware tests on the system
    As arc mentioned memtest is an important one and needs to be run overnight for many passes to be sure RAM - Test with Memtest86+ i know you mentioned running it before but how many passes/how long did you run it for
    Also HD checks would be good Disk Check and Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure using something like SeaTools | Seagate
    and a general system stress test Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95 to load up the cpu but again monitor temps at all times while running and dont leave unattended

    If you have installed any special keyboard software, uninstall it while testing. Software from Netropia Corp is a known cause of BSODs on some systems. Also carry out all the hardware tests prescribed.

    Okay! So all of your wonderful help actually fixed my computer for quite some time (or so it seemed), but recently my computer has been having BSOD again. Mostly with the IRQL not less or equal error again, but I'll let you take a peek at my crash logs and see if we can figure out the problem :)

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

    Okay the BSOD's stopped, but then they finally came back and now windows won't go past the "Starting Windows" screen, iut jsut freezes there. Startup repair won't run, and I ran memtest and got errors. Attempting to isolate the bad stick now.

    So my sticks are failing in all four slots, is it safe to assume it's a bad motherboard?

    Yes, I would also assume the same.

    Okay... Would a bad motherboard explain my previous errors? And is there an affordable replacement one I could order online that you would suggest?

    A bad motherboard can cause any type of issues. All issues are justified for it.

    For a compatible and affordable board, Britton30's suggestions will be valuable. He is offline now. Hopefully he will suggest something shortly :)
