BSOD on resuming Windows from hibernation

Yesterday was patch tuesday, did you check Windows Update for updates?

8 new updates available, but to be honest I'm wary about installing them so soon, as I had a BadPatch error with the same PC (crypt32.dll mysteriously not working, unable to boot even in Safe Mode, or to use a restore point) a year ago - although again, different HDD.

I would recommend to backup your system using Acronis, Paragon, EaseUs or Macrium, for such situations.
I personally use Macrium because of its simplicity and stability.

Thanks for the recommendation. I took the plunge and updated my system, no luck still. Latest dump logs attached:

Might it be a problem with my sound driver? I just realised that I have a problem with audio distortion, similar to:

Except it isn't intermittent for me. The driver in question is fully up to date as far as I know.

In Windows Update history, is there an update for the chipset drivers?

No, it doesn't list any.

It turns out that Intel Rapid Storage (IaStorA.sys) was the culprit. I downloaded the latest version direct from the Intel website (SetupRST.exe) and it solved my problem instantly.

It's a part of your chipset drivers, generally I don't recommend to use drivers that are not from the laptop / motherboard manufacturer as it usually causes problems.

The Intel Rapid Storage driver was on the DVD that came with my computer actually. Thanks for your help anyway.
