    does this happen when you are doing something in particular or does it just randomly happen whenever?

    If you could copy down the name of the exact something that would help. You could also run memtest I guess to also check for memory errors but I highly doubt thats the problem.

    However you could try uninstalling and reinstalling your GPU drivers I guess, but thats just again just a guess. Knowing exactly what that .sys is will help a lot.

    It's probably a faulty driver for one of your USB devices. What USB devices do you have beyond the usual mouse or keyboard?
