Unfortunately, updating those drivers did not fix the issue, nor did running with only one RAM stick. When I was swapping out the RAM however, I noticed that my motherboard was undervolting it slightly (0.15V). I manually set the RAM to the correct voltage, and ran a stability test with Prime95 (blend) for 24 hours without error. Following that, I had the computer play videos off the internet (to simulate day to day use) for 24 hours, again with no error. Thinking all was well, I reinstalled the OS onto the correct drive, and installed all the drivers that had not given me issues in the past, as well as downloading and installing windows updates. Unfortunately, within a few hours, I got another BSOD (report is attached, and driver verifier was enabled during this time). I reran Prime95 (small FFT) for 24 hours and again got no errors.
I'm tempted to try reinstalling the OS again, but before I did that I wanted to get your thoughts. Is it possible that I'm still having a hardware failure, and Prime95/Memtest86+ isn't catching it? Or is this latest BSOD due to software issues?
