It is the 1/08/2014/1st of August. So, since the 7th of July I have been getting this blue screen. It started off once and I thought it was a one off because it didn't happen until 5 days. Then it started happening more frequently. Now it happens everyday. The problem is, I can't pinpoint what the actual problem is because the dmp files are encrypted for some reason and the screen changed every time I get it. On 2 occasions it has had fltmgr.sys and win32k.sys but other than that it's just been your standard blue screen. Sometimes it will automatically reboot and sometimes it wont. It's quite strange. If there's anything I can do to fix it please tell me. I've tried using the Windows Memory checker thing and CHKDSK, etc. I've tried scanning for viruses. I've tried updating drivers and doing windows updates. No success.
 
Solution
if your system generally displays a bluescreen but sometimes just resets I would be looking at the power supply unit first.
(voltage drops and the cpu is reset and no bugcheck is produced).

test the power supply, clean dust out of the fans. Some of the actual bugcheck codes would also help. fluctuation of the power tends to cause certain bugcheck directly by the CPU. ( Bug Check 0x124: WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR)

Sorry, I'm not very good with this stuff but that's all I can really find that's important.

Okay, I forgot to mention that there is another problem. Rarely, the Computer will just turn off completely with no reason at all. Or it will turn off and restart for some reason. This is rare but it can happen. Does this mean anything?

I, remembered last night that the first BSoD I ever got was when I installed a DS3 Tool. Basically this allowed me to use my PS3 Controller to play games. Obviously, it came with drivers and after doing a bug check analysis, it came up with ntskornl.exe/dxgmms1.sys or something like that. So, I removed the DS3 Tool and I haven't had a blue screen yet. I'm not going to mark this as solved until about a week. If, I do get a BSoD then I will order a new power supply.
