Who mentioned the BIOS?

Killer drivers - You should just download the installer and run it without needing a USB

Can you follow option one on the following link - here - 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 after the next BSOD

copy that file to documents
upload the copy from documents to a file sharing web site, and share the link in your thread so we can help fix the problem

just in case John is wrong about it being the KIller Drivers :)

Apparently it's already set to automatic so luckily I've already got some, are they located here?: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump as there are 3: 092820-9890-01.dmp, 111520-14250-01.dmp, 111620-16375-01.dmp and how do I upload them?
