So I have tried everything I can think of to find the root of this problem and I am sadly beginning to lean more towards my SSD is crapping out on me. If It turns out however that that is not what it is, well that would be great lol. Anyways, this started happening pretty consistently week before last along with some other errors. I decided to pull my other drives, change the SATA slot my SSD was plugged into just in case, and do a reinstall of windows 7 on my SSD, and to my disappointment, I have discovered that it is still happening. The pattern of the errors seems to have changed a bit but it hasn't happened enough after today's reinstall to know for sure. Basically what it would do is, programs would start lagging and then turning non responsive. Then windows explorer would crash and bring up this message, although the program mentioned in the error changed pretty much every time.

I would be unable to open up the task manager as it would give this error message.

Sometimes before windows explorer would crash, whatever program I was in, often Google Chrome, would crash, and then if I tried to click on the shortcut on my taskbar I would get this error

Then explorer would crash, and then shortly after that would come the unidentified, no dump file, BSOD as seen below.

I would greatly appreciate any help on this one, because I have tried everything I can think of including disk checks and all that, and so far I am left with the conclusion that I am going to have to buy another SSD to get my computer back up and running consistently. My other non SSD hard drives all currently have large quantities of files on them so installing over one of them is not an option.

Anyways thanks in advance to any who can offer assistance.

Also my rig breakdown is as thus:
* Case: Azza Hurrican 2000 Full Tower Gaming Case w/ 4x230mm fans and 4x120mm fans

* Motherboard: GigaByte GA-Z68XP-UD4 Intel Z68 Chipset
* Video Card: 2x NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 HD 2.5GB 16X PCIe Video Cards in SLI
* Memory: Corsair Vengeance Blue 16 GB DDR3 SDRAM Dual Channel Memory Kit
* Hard Drive 1: Crucial M4 128gb SSD
* Hard Drive 2: Hitachi 2TB SATA III 7200RPM 64MB cache
* Hard Drive 3: Seagate Baracuda 3TB SATA III 7200RPM 64MB cache
* Hard Drive 4: Western Digital Cavier Green 3TB SATA III, 7200 RPM, 64MB Cache
* Power Supply: Thermaltake TRX 1200W Modular Power Supply

start with http://www.hwinfo.com/ turn on sensor and logging see if the 12v rail is above 12v and is holding. bad power can show up as a bad drive if the power supply is not a good unit like the one your using and the 12v to the drive is not clean it can cause data errors. if the power is fine take out 1/2 your ran and run memtest86 if there no errors with 1/2 ram reload windows see if it runs fine. if windows has errors but memtest is fine run intel cpu test and try turning off cpu cache and or cores see if your cpu has gone bad. on the ssd make sure it has the newest firmware on it.

@SMORIZIO, Ok I downloaded hwinfo and I have looked all through this program and I dont see where I can find how much power the 12v rail is using. Honestly its a bit above my hardware knowledge range. Also what is Memtest 86? or intel cpu test for that matter. I apologize for my ignorance and thank you again for your help :)
