Occasional BSODs, different errors each time

I'm receiving about two BSODs per week with a different error string each time. I'm not sure if there's any connection between the BSODs or not, but I figured I'd post here where you wonderful folks can help me. For some reason only the most recent dump is in my minidump folder, so there's probably only a limited amount of information that can be figured out.

Any thoughts? Thank you in advance!

You're right about the limited amount of info contained in a single dump file (especially when you're having different error messages). Please provide this information so we can provide a complete analysis (from the Pinned Topic at the top of the forum): http://www.eightforums.com/bsod-cra...e-screen-death-bsod-posting-instructions.html Please use Option 1 as it provides Event Viewer logs.

This one is a STOP 0x7E error. See the Usual Causes section here: BSOD Index
As you'll see, this can be either a hardware or software error - so we've got our work cut out for us.
But, thanks to your observation (of the different errors each time) we'll start with the hardware diagnostics. The lack of a pattern in the error codes is usually symptomatic of a hardware/compatibility/low-level driver function problem.

Here's the diagnostics to start with: Hardware Diagnostics
Start with the video tests as video drivers were blamed in the memory dump.

Also, you may want to update your video drivers to the latest, Win8.1 compatible version.
If you already have the most current version, you may want to uninstall them and then install a freshly downloaded copy (in order to rule out any corruption in the current driver).

Please update these older drivers. Links are included to assist in looking up the source of the drivers. If unable to find an update, please remove (un-install) the program responsible for that driver. DO NOT manually delete/rename the driver as it may make the system unbootable! :

I would just uninstall the program associated with this driver - it's just way too old to update (IMO)
