While appreciate the event logs, I can't work unless you provide all of the information I requested.
Looking at event logs are the last thing that I do - and it's usually to confirm that I've found the problem in the other reports.

I have the same problem and I have the error details posted on James M Singleton Windows 8 FOSS. Click on the Latest Error Details. It gives the information that may be useful to that MVP. Problems are that mouse freezes and computer becomes unresponsive for no reason. Also I get random BSOD's also. Can you offer any help?

Error results have been updated and need to know what other information is needed. Is it safe to post these results?
