Hi there, any contribution would be appreciated. It's been two weeks, BSOD happened about twice per week when just transferring some files.

Thank you.

The last .dmp files are dated August 2015. Your post implies you have soemthing more recent, but there are no recent .dmp files.

Please do the following:

Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.
Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

Driver Verifier will cause your computer to run very sluggishly - this is normal. What it is trying to do is force your system to BSOD and isolate the offending driver/s. When it does, reboot, disable driver verifier, reboot as normal and upload the new dmp file/s here.

I recommend creating a system restore point before turning on driver verifier:
System Restore Point - Create

If your system fails to boot to desktop once driver verifier is enabled, turn it off by booting into Safe Mode:
Safe Mode

Hi Golden, I followed up strictly with your instruction, turned on the driver verifier and let it run, after about 20 hours the computer crushed and I collected the dump using the software provided by the forum, but once I open the zip and found the dump file date is still 2015-8-10 instead of the data of the crush ( Feb 17/2016) . The dump setting is at small dump. Also, I went to event viewer-system to the date of the crush, which is 1/25/2016 around 4 pm and found critical error Kernel 41 which proves the BSOD did happen around that time. I'm very confused, why is it the dump file not generated? Let me know Golden, thx.

This is the screen shot of the BSOD when it happened at 1/25/2016 around 4 pm. Hopefully it would help. Thx.
