Hey guys, got myself some lovely BSOD issues after a fresh format yesterday.
One happened yesterday upon closing a Chrome window and the next today whilst playing Bastion.
Neither are particularly strenuous activities so I'm presuming a driver error.
I've attached my dump files.
Any help will be massively appreciated guys, cheers.

Avast is contributing to your BSOD's. Please remove it for testing purpose. Use Microsoft Security Essentials.
Recommended from a strict BSOD perspective, compatibility & stability compared to other security software:
Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows
Malwarebytes - Free
Good and Free system security combination.
Scan with Kaspersky TDSSKiller:Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller
ESET online scanner: Free Online Virus Scanner | ESET
Run a System file check (SFC): SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

Hey Koolkat77, no BSODs whilst working away on this list today, but as I said, they've only occurred randomly so far.
Startup list cut down - not much there to start with
Avast removed.
MS Security essential installed.
TDSSKiller found nothing.
SFC came back clear.
AICharger Disabled in startup.
HWMonitor Thermals Taken. (See Screenshot)
Seem high on CPU for idle, even IB; Stock cooling.
Can't feel that heat coming from the case exhausts though.
Service pack 1 installed and windows updated.
I'll keep you posted on any BSODs during today.
Thanks again!
Been a good long while with plenty of computer activity and no more BSODs!
Thanks very much for all your help!
