Can't Determine Which Driver

As this is my first self built PC I'm worried I may have made a mistake in installing drivers incorrectly which is causing the issue at hand.

I've been getting a string of BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) randomly during gaming, about once a day, though it can happen hours into a session or sometimes minutes. I can't determine which driver it is that is faulty or if it is hardware that is causing the issue.

I've run memtest86 & Windows Memory Diagnostic and am fairly certain it is not bad RAM; however I've also run SFC and it has come back saying "no integrity violations".

I recently also realized I forgot to update the BIOS for my motherboard upon installing clean windows 10 but am not sure if would have any effect on the issue at hand

According to bluescreenview it appears to be a driver issue but I can't figure it out for the life of me, any help is appreciated!

Turn off driver verifier, it caused two of them...IRQ errors are generally drivers and the other two are probably related to which ever driver did it.
ntoskrnl = heart of win 10, it normally crashes if asked to do things it shouldn't do by drivers
hal.dll = hardware abstraction layer, it sits between windows and the hardware so it is a driver issue again.

Your motherboard is one of the lucky ones, download Live Update 6 and run it to confirm you have the latest drivers for motherboard

 


After downloading Live Update 6 and installing all drivers, I still am getting BSOD randomly and am at a loss for what could be the cause...

Are you using an Network interface card or using onboard connection for internet? tcpip is the process on PC that handles internet access, so my guess would be lan drivers, another option is run an anti virus scan.

Blue-screen only shows so much, can you also do this and maybe someone will read the files for you and fix it:
Can you follow option one here: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5560-bsod-minidump-configure-create-windows-10-a.html
and then do this step below: Small memory dumps - Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD

that creates a file in c/windows/minidump
copy that file to documents
upload the copy from documents to a cloud server and share the link here and someone with right software to read them will help you fix it :)
 


I'm not sure how to check the Network interface card or onboard connection? I just plugged in my internet cable to the mobo after putting the computer together.

I put all the minidump files into a .rar and uploaded it to my dropbox which can be viewed here:

Thanks for the help!
