Hi,
looking through the dump file I can see from the call stack (a blow by blow account of the last sub routines) that it's probably Norton AV that's behind the issues.
However, most if not all of your drivers are in need of updating. Your USB 3 drivers for example are dated 2010 and this version is known for causing bsod's..

Laptop drivers are supplied by the manufacturer and checking the support page for your machine I see there are updates available for pretty much everything. The only thing is that they only go up to 2012 but at least they are later versions of what your using now.
Please double check I have the correct page for your model:
http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/xps-15/drivers

You could try updating said drivers and seeing if the bsod stops but if it doesn't then remove Norton using the removal tool found here:
https://support.norton.com/sp/en/uk/home/current/solutions/kb20080710133834EN_EndUserProfile_en_us

Use MSE in the meantime as it's ultra stable:

Post any new dump files.
 
Uninstalled norton and put avg on. Problem solved. I will look at updating those drivers as recommended. Many thanks. :)
 
Thats great and thank you for updating your thread. Any problems just post back.. :)
