    Code:
    Start Menu\Programs\Ad-Aware Antivirus	Public:Start Menu\Programs\Ad-Aware Antivirus	Public
    Seems to contribute to your crashes. Remove and replace with Microsoft Security Essentials to see if it provides more stability. Uninstallers (removal tools) for common antivirus software

    Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes are recommended from a strict BSOD perspective. They do not cause blue screens on the system as other AV products do.

    Microsoft Security Essentials, Free antivirus for windows

    Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free

       Warning
    DO NOT start the free trial of MalwareBytes, unselect that option when prompted.


       Tip
    Make full scans with both separately.


    System Optimisers
    Please remove the following software:
    Code:
    Start Menu\Programs\Wise Registry Cleaner	Public:Start Menu\Programs\Wise Registry Cleaner	Public
    This software is a known cause of BSOD's. The windows 7 operating system does not require these registry cleaning software. They often tune-down rather than tune-up and can wreck the OS beyond repair. Microsoft have improved Windows 7 significantly and it is much better at organising and optimising itself than its predecessors. Check this, this and this thread for evidence.

    If you feel the need to use a registry cleaning or optimisation software, most of us recommend the use of CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download but make sure you back up the registry before making letting ccleaner delete anything.
