it didnt ask me to install anything after analyze.

I'm pretty sure I had a bsod before adding avast on my computer, I could be wrong. Avast is running in the background but its not doing a scan or anything when I get bsod.

Nonetheless it's suggested you look for updates for the products that these drivers belong to and regularly visit Windows update or enable automatic updates for Windows. In case a piece of malfunctioning hardware is causing trouble, a search with Google on the bug check errors together with the model name and brand of your computer may help you investigate this further.
