Windows 7 crashes constantly - Please help
Hello. I've recently, last week, installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit on my older PC. I'm very pleased and happy with it's performance aside from the fact that my computer crashes and restats on me, usually daily. Sometimes it's even been twice in a day.
It usually happens when I am afk or asleep and when I go to wake up my computer in the morning it says that my computer restated unexpectedly. I have read some of the other threads on the subject but I was wondering if you have any advice for my particular system. I filled out all of my PC details upon registering so I am assuming you can get all of the particulars from there. If not let me know and I am more than willing to put them in this thread.
I took a look at the Event Log and see just what the might be going on. Here are a few of the incidents that I located in the Event Log. There are others but these seemed to be the most important to me and had multiple incidents for all of them.

Can you please help as I would love to get rid of this issue on my system. I have read that several people updated their motherboard BIOS but I have yet to take that step. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would love to get around this crashing. Thanks!
As was asked is previous posts I am attaching my zipped minidump files.
