Hi,
although two dump files were Bugcheck 124 the rest were like the above and it looks like Norton was involved. The error that generates this bug check usually occurs after the installation of a faulty device driver, system service, or BIOS.
Bugcheck 124 can mean a hardware error occurred although can also be caused by out of date bios, corrupt software, overheating.

You have bios updates pending many of which improve system stability and performance:

Norton is a well known troublemaker and cause of bsod. Back in the mists of time Norton (circa 2002) was the best AV suite one could use but sadly no more. It wraps it's tentacles into everything and it really is quite amazing how invasive it is. If the Bios update fails to stop the bsod then I would next try removing Norton. Use the removal tool though:
