    There's no need for MemTest as we have found your problem, it's your SSD overheating. Can you try to install Windows on the HDD and unplug your SSD when running Windows on the HDD.

    Would I have to transfer everything off from the HDD? The HDD itself currently is pretty full with Steam games and music. It does have around 80GB free though. How would I go about installing Windows 7 on the HDD without losing the data itself?

    If the SSD itself is indeed overheating, will it need replacing? I'm not sure about this - as you can see. Sorry for all of the questions.

    Yes, or to an external media and yes the SSD needs replacing, if you can get it RMA:ed.

    What could have caused this? The SSD was defective from the get-go? About a couple of months later after the build and purchase of the PC, I started getting the BSOD...

    Since i can't find any info about "A-RAM", it means that they are some knockoff brand who is just looking to make money by selling cheap electronics that fail very quickly.

    Wow. Seems like you're correct. I just found this.

    I'm going to just dig around for some reviews and choose a new SSD, will most likely go with Intel. I guess this is solved? Seriously appreciate the work here, people. Thank you.

    That's around the time the PC was built. Late 2012. I recently updated the firmware and that didn't do anything to stop the BSOD.

    Again, thanks people. Intel it is.

    Yeah, I was just posting that date because it seems they just stopped any support. It states they have a 3 year warranty but I see no way to RMA with them.

    Probably just as well, I wouldn't want another one of those, you got about 3 years out of it.

    Seems like the PC was built with nice brand parts, MSI mobo, Western Digital HDD, CoolerMaster PSU and case... except for the SSD. Makes no sense on why they would do that and go with A-Ram. Oh well. If I had the knowledge I do now in terms of brands and parts in general, I would have spoken up about that.
