MSI Windpad 110w random BSOD's

I have updated every driver I could find after using the recovery disks to restore this tablet (the recovery disks don't seem to work very well to run the tablet it seems). I am just wanting to get tab to work and though I could chase down event log errors I'd be happy to donate $$ to get this fixed.

Last driver update I did this morn was ATI chipset (I think) and it crashed once since, I think, so that is why I am here. I tried to read some of the logs but I am tired of messing with this. I am pretty computer literate (if that helps any) but I reached my limit on this one. It BSODed from the get go after I got it so I stuck it in a drawer and dragged it out to try Win 8 (crashes) and Win 10 (more crashes). I don't think either of those OSes can run as a clean install w/o extensive driver hunting.

Thank you very much for any help!

And if it means anything, I did not disable the page file even though this is a SSD, thinking that might be a contribution. I have had the OS check the disk and I ran an OS memory check, both report clean. So if I am toasting the drive, oh well. I'll get a new one, they are cheaper now anyway.

I think, but am not sure, I updated the BIOS. I will check. It has ver1.09 build EN0E1AMS currently
I am trying to get updated system info so I rebooted to get into setup and got another BSOD:

atikmdag (isn't this the display driver I already updated????)

again, :(

I am flustered this morning and cannot find the error in event viewer to report exactly what it said.

I don't remember how to find the info for the mb unless I just get it from the manuf site and that could be wrong. Edited to add link to Belarc Advisor Profile here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4urti0x6v021c6v/AACYMVkr4EcdWslfjTYeySXfa?dl=0

Other BSOD's have been random, sometimes while it is just sitting there, other times when opening a file. I disabled UAC. I used to get (a lot, when I had Win 8 on it) an error about HID and low memory and that the OS was going to disable some programs. I never figured that one out, I would have thought my mouse would quit working but it never did.

Right now I am being dogged by the Windows Activation Technology stuff and an error from IE complaining about a corrupted search provider (it won't let me make google the default and remove Bing). I had already activated this tablet once and I need to upgrade to IE 11 or get firefox on here so it will let me alone.

The Windows Activation failed. I am rebooting to see if that helps. How did it unactivate itself?

Oh no, getting the 'Black Screen of Not-Genuine Windows' which has now changed to it IS genuine. All this corruption from just installing Google search?

What a PITA.

(OK it activated, I installed MSE and IE 11 and will just wait to hear from someone here. I now know why it deactivated, all of the driver changes this morning looked like new hardware to the OS).

Well, I did not expect immediate help but I guess ANY help does not seem to be forthcoming. 74 views and not one "Hey, we're checking your logs and we will get back to you as soon as we can".

5 other posts have already had replies this morning and one of them did not have a zip file uploaded even. I guess I provided a bit too much information.

99 views on my thread since yesterday and not one reply. I am not quite sure why this forum exists. I guess its never mind. People that did not follow the directions before posting got replies and help already.
