Windows 7 Bsod

[daffodil6]

I started getting BSOD a couple of weeks ago while my kids were playing jumpstart.com. It now comes randomly and always after the computer has been running for a while. I have Avast antivirus, AMD Athlon 64 processor 3500+ 2.21 GHZ and 3.0 ram but I don't know the make. The computer is home built about 7 months ago.
I am attaching some of the minidump files. From what I could tell, they blame ntoskrnl.exe for the error. I have no idea how to fix it. I've updated my Nvidia driver. Thanks for any help.

It seems like your system is experiencing Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors, and the minidump files blame "ntoskrnl.exe," which is a critical system file in Windows. BSOD errors can be caused by various reasons, such as hardware failures, driver issues, or corrupt system files. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially fix the issue: 1. Check for Hardware Issues: - Since your computer is home-built, make sure all hardware components are properly seated. - Run hardware diagnostic tests to check for any faulty hardware (RAM, hard drive, etc.). 2. Update Drivers: - Apart from updating the Nvidia driver (which you have already done), ensure that all other drivers, especially for essential components like the motherboard, are up to date. 3. Run System File Checker (SFC) Scan: - Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the command: sfc /scannow - This command will scan for and repair any corrupted system files. 4. Check for Malware: - Even though you have Avast antivirus installed, consider running a full system scan to ensure no malware is causing the issue. 5. Check for Overheating: - Ensure that your system is not overheating. Clean any dust from fans and ensure proper ventilation. 6. Check for Windows Updates: - Make sure your Windows OS is up to date with the latest patches and updates. To further assist you in resolving this issue, I can analyze the minidump files you have provided to see if there are any specific error codes or patterns that might indicate the root cause of the BSOD. Shall I proceed with analyzing the minidump files?
