So something interesting just happened. I'm going to post a few pictures to show you. But I just booted my PC and then...it stalled. Everything. for about 2-3 minutes. And the cause of this? Bluetooth. This was what was in the "Problem signature" for the application crash:

The attached pictures show that the driver is still a yellow triangle, and the only "bluetooth application" installed is still technically the driver, but you can see all of those windows with the yellow triangle (the taskbar snip) saying that Realtek Bluetooth BTServer Application has stopped working. I haven't touched anything since we last spoke, even windows updates. I left everything alone and I haven't had a bluescreen since, but my guess is that if the BT driver was installed and active, I would've had a blue screen at this instant.
