First, turn off your overclock, you may believe it's stable but it may not be. Next run a memtest on your sticks of RAM. On your overclock are you overvolting as well?

memtest86+ reports no errors after 4 hours (ran it before). I'll try removing the overclock, but the problem is that I can't reproduce the crash, so I won't know for sure. I am overcolting the core to 1.305v, and the VCCIO to 1.075v and everything else is stock. It passed Prime95 for 36 hours.

Problem with Hal.dll
Either a virus/malware, do a virus scan.
Run SFC /scannow from a elevated(run as administrator) command prompt.
You may end up reinstalling windows.

Ran a Kaspersky virus scan, and SFC /scannnow and got this: "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."
Waiting on Kaspersky...

Any other thoughts?

Get a program called Who Crashed? For a indepth look at ur crash dumps. It will show a bigger picture besides what you got.
Also, have you installed any hardware lately? Anything, doesn't matter, even USB jump drives. Uninstall it and see how it goes. HAL is your hardware layer. If it's going tripping then its a driver or hardware problem more likely.

No new hardware has been installed, but some games have been that install their own DirectX updates. Only thing I can say is that I frequently plug and unplug other USB equipment, so I'll try only using my peripherals. So far, everything has been going well, I updated my BIOS and Intel RST, and changed everything to default, except my SATA controller to RAID. Thanks for the help but I'll keep you posted.

Alright man, good luck.

Alright man, good luck.

Thanks for the help, turned out it was the display driver. I had some remains of an AMD driver (wierd, I've never owner an AMD card, or AMD hardware), but it's fixed now.
