You need not to extract the drivers form nvidia's download. To have a clean install of the display driver without the bundled things, follow it: Install the latest WHQL only.
- Uninstall All nvidia items in Control Panel > Programs and features
- 3D Vision Control Driver
- 3D Vision Driver
- Graphics Driver
- HD Audio Driver
- PhysX
- nvidia Update
(Are you using nvidia chipset drivers? If so, dont uninstall anything other than those are listed).
- Now follow Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling
- Boot normally now. Go to Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers, Download the latest WHQL. While installing, Select Custom (Advanced) install. In the next page, follow this settings:
BTW, 314.22 WHQL worked better than 320.18 WHQL.
As per Carrona.org, STOP 0x0000001E: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
http://www.carrona.org/bsodindx.html#top
Usual causes: Device driver, hardware, System service, compatibility, Remote control programs, memory, BIOS
So, the display driver update may not be enough. Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.
Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of
Speccy.
Are you overclocking? As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings. Also set the BIOS to default, too.
How To Clear CMOS (Reset BIOS)
Also, your BIOS is old.
Code:
BiosMajorRelease = 8
BiosMinorRelease = 15
BiosVendor = American Megatrends Inc.
BiosVersion = 1304
[COLOR=Red]BiosReleaseDate = 06/07/2010[/COLOR]
If possible, update it to Version 170, dated 2011/07/11.
** Please understand that the BIOS update is risky. If you are not sure how to do it, take help of somebody who can do it.
Let us know the results.

KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (1e)
This is a very common bugcheck. Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem. Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Arguments:
Arg1: ffffffffc0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: fffff880051f4623, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: 0000000000000000, Parameter 0 of the exception
Arg4: ffffffffffffffff, Parameter 1 of the exception
