Ok the next time a bluescreen happens post what the error says here.To rule out you having too many items starting up and services running that are un-neeeded please do the following.Download CCLEANER the link below:

Just DONT us the registry cleaner function of CCleaner unless you know what you are deleting exactly!!

Then open ccleaner hit the tools button then startup second one down below uninstall then in the bottom right hand corner of ccleaner hit save to text file.Save it to your desktop and post the startup.txt here in your next reply.Also hit start run then type msconfig then hit the services tab then put a check mark in hide microsoft services what is listed there,after hiding microsoft services? Also I need to see an uninstall list from ccleaner hit the tools button then uninstall then in the bottom right hand corner of ccleaner hit save to text file.Save it to your desktop and post the uninstall.txt

You can download in safemode with networking.Or try a clean boot.Here is a link explaining
