Thanks for the quick reply! I have the latest Bios - A10, I believe... and I can't find a later version for my system. That's good information though and I'll continue to look around. I've updated my graphics driver about 5 times and have still been unsuccessful. I'll keep trying different...

Hello All, So far I haven't had a BSOD in a 3-4 days... I'll keep an eye on it and report back if I come across another Blue screen... As far as a solution for now, I think it was the driver for Radeon HD 7570 that was being picky along with the possibility that the Wifi driver was picky...

Hello Cliff, Looks like I have fastboot turned on, but I didn't have to check that in the Bios in Windows 8.1 it's located in the power options menu. Basically, startup from shut down is terribly slow and I would like to get it back to where it was when starting up. The screen remains black...

I've been BSOD free for a few days now. My fingers are crossed, but it seems everything is running decent now. I think updating the Wireless Driver and Graphics Driver manually, along with CCleaner and restart did the trick... I'll wait and see. I think it was just being picky with the driver...
