Your error is 0x0000009C: MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION
This is a hardware issue: an unrecoverable hardware error has occurred. The parameters have different meanings depending on what type of CPU you have but, while diagnostic, rarely lead to a clear solution. Most commonly it results from overheating, from failed hardware (RAM, CPU, hardware bus, power supply, etc.), or from pushing hardware beyond its capabilities (e.g., overclocking a CPU).


This is a very difficult issue to work with because it can be any hardware you have in your system. I have yet to have any minidump with this error give a definitive cause and your situation is no different.


I suggest at this point your do two things.

A) Run a harddrive diagnostics by using your harddrive manufacture's free utility that you can get off their website.

B) Update your NIC drivers

Also, if you have overclocked anything ease back on voltage and timings.

P.S.: Did you see the attached file (the Minidump Log file)?

Yes, I read it. As I said previously, I have yet to have any minidump with this error give a definitive cause and your situation is no different.

In other words, the specific hardware was never identified.
