The crash dumps are not very specific about which USB driver is bugging out. There may be many a reasons for it. But the first notion goes to this one:

==================================================

==================================================

Try to update it. If there is no feasible updates, uninstall it.

Also the Suyin USB 2.0 Webcam driver ....

==================================================
Driver Name       : snp2uvc.sys

Update is needed here too. But no abailable update is there in neither SUYIN nor OEM. So disabling it will be a good test.

Lastly ....

==================================================
Driver Name       : aswKbd.sys

The keyboard filter by Avast may cause some malfunctions for a USB keyboard. But, pay attention to this one after the first two.

Let us know the situation when done.

Thx Arc. I am going to disable the webcam first since that was the latest driver that I updated. It was only after that the BSOD started happening. I'll keep you posted on how it goes.

Thanks for your help, Arc. I disabled the webcam first but still had a couple of crashes. Next I removed the Avast antivirus which you had mentioned as a probable cause. Since the AV removal, I haven't had a blue screen (fingers crossed). So seems like that was the culprit. I would let you know if there is another BSOD event.

Appreciate your help and advice!
