Windows 7 64 bit BSOD recurring 0x0000007E

[Jason X USN]

I purchased my Sager gaming laptop in February. Since then I have had recurring issues with BSOD's. My internet research led me to believe that it was my virus protection software (I had kasperskey) so I upgraded to the full premium version of

Webroot Secure Anywhere. I thought that fixed the problem, and then today I had another BSOD. The model is Sager NP8130. Most of my system specs have been updated, and I included the dump files and system report. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I would be happy to answer any further questions. Thank you in advance for your time.

At least to test, uninstall your anti-virus and install MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials) instead.
Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows

Test your RAM using Memtest86+. Let it run until 6-8 passes have completed or errors have been found.

If you are overclocking any hardware, STOP. Reset any changed values back to default.

Boot into http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/666-advanced-boot-options.html and choose the Last Known Good Configuration option. This should start Windows with the last known registry and driver options that worked.

Just to add my 2¢ to JaidynM's excellent advice:

Only 64 updates after SP1 - most systems have in excess of 70. Please check for any available Windows Updates

I'm unfamiliar with Protector Suite. Is this your fingerprint recognition software?

Out of 11 memory dumps there are 5 different BSOD error codes with 7 different causes being blamed
This is most likely a hardware problem, with these being the likely things that are wrong:
- hardware is borked (broken)
- overclocking
- compatibility issues
- low-level driver problems
- malware

The only known troublemaker that I see in the memory dump's driver listing is xusb21.sys.
This is the driver for your USB XBox controller. I've seen problems with this device recently.
I suggest uninstalling the software and removing (unplugging) the device from your system to see if that fixes things.
AFAIK, there are no updated drivers for it - so if you want to reinstall it, please download a fresh copy in order to prevent any installation errors that may have been in the original package.

Further info on BSOD error messages available at: http://www.carrona.org/bsodindx.html

The following info is just FYI, I've already addressed the issues that I saw in the above paragraphs

As per JaidynM's suggestion I uninstalled Webroot and installed MSE. Also per Usasma I got the most up to date Windows updates. After 4 days, not a single BSOD or software crash. I appreciate the info, and will reference the other suggestions if any of my problems recur. Thank you so much for your time and assistance folks!

Next most likely is the XBox controller.
Good luck!

That's good to hear, I'm glad it's all solved.
