    Welcome!

    Sorry to hear you are having troubles.

    Out of the 33 dmps, 2 of them appear to be caused by your anti-virus Zone Alarm. I would advise uninstalling Zone Alarm completely with Revo Uninstaller.

    The rest don't point to a specific driver, which suggests a system problem.

    Open an elevated command prompt and enter sfc /scannow.

    You might also test your memory. Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using ImgBurn. Boot from the CD, and run at least 5 passes.

    Good luck!

    Thank you so much for your quick reply. Would a complete re-install of windows 7 fix this? Right now I am trying to re-boot my computer but it forced me to do a startup repair so that is whats running. I will try all the things you said but I am just curious that if I just simply reinstall windows 7 completly could that potently fix all the problems? I can always back up stuff. I just don't want BSOD anymore lol.

    If you wanted to reinstall Windows, you can try a Repair Install first.

    A reinstall would take care of the ZoneAlarm and system files problem, but not memory issues.

    In fact, if you have a RAM problem, you may run into trouble installing Windows.

    Another update: I ran the Windiag from the microsoft website and ran it overnight, well after 5 passes no errors came up. But I am still wondering why memtest would not work for me and I am still getting blue screens Could Windiag have missed something, or is it most likely a win7 installation problem? Thanks in advance!

    It is probably either a memory or driver issue.

    Did you do everything I recommended in my first post, or just the memory test?

    Try a system files check and remove ZoneAlarm.

    Not sure if this is even possible but could it be where I am running the computer being the problem, it seems like whenever I am home I get the BSOD but if I am anywhere else I seemingly don't get it. I have gotten it once or twice on my college campus but its almost always at home where the problems arise.

    EDIT: Wait never mind now its doing it on campus too...
