BSOD appearing at random, error 0x000000d1 - storport.sys

[MusedRainfall]

Computer has been running stable on Windows 7 Home Premium for about a month but just recently my computer will randomly throw a BSOD with error code 0x000000d1 caused by storport.sys driver.

I've made sure all of my drivers are up to date and have searched multiple forums but found no suggested fixes besides a hotfix for Windows Server 2003.

Thank you in advance for any help!

I updated the BIOS successfully but for some reason whenever I try to update the driver for Intel RST, my machine hangs at the windows logo when rebooting after install. I then have to restore back to before the driver update to boot up.
