Three of the five (two are inconclusive) minidump files cite that your issue is with memory corruption. Therefore you’ll need to run Memtest on your RAM.
1. Go to www.memtest.org and download the latest ISO version which is 4.20. It is free and perfectly safe.
2. Burn ISO to a CD.
3. Place CD in your drive and reboot with CD in drive. (You might have to place your drive as first bootable in your BIOS) The test will take over.
There is a Tutorial: How to use Memtest in our Guides and Tutorials forum; follow the instructions. There is a newer version than what is listed; use the newer. If you need to see what the Memtest screen looks like go to reply #21. The third screen is the Memtest screen.
Step1 - Let it run for a LONG time. The rule is a minimum of 7 Passes; the more Passes after 7 so much the better. The only exception is if you start getting errors before 7 Passes then you can skip to Step 2.
There are 8 individual tests per Pass. Many people will start this test before going to bed and check it the next day.
If you have errors you have corrupted memory and it needs to be replaced.
Step 2 – Because of errors you need to run this test per stick of RAM. Take out one and run the test. Then take that one out and put the other in and run the test. If you start getting errors before 7 Passes you know that stick is corrupted and you don’t need to run the test any further on that stick.
* Get back to us with the results.
*** If Memtest shows no errors then find the voltage specs of your RAM and compare it to the voltage setting in your BIOS. Do they match?

Error code 0x1A: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
This memory management error is usually hardware related.
Nothing definitive was cited but we already know your motherboard takes 1.8v RAM but your memory is designed for 2.0-2.1v. As I said before, even incremental differences can and will cause system crashes.

Requested data was not in memory. An invalid system memory address was referenced. Defective memory (including main memory, L2 RAM cache, video RAM) or incompatible software (including remote control and antivirus software) might cause this Stop message, as may other hardware problems (e.g., incorrect SCSI termination or a flawed PCI card).
My suggestion is that you go to Gigabyte's website, find your exact motherboard model and look up the memory recommendation list for this motherboard. A new set of memory designed for 1.8v may be what is needed here unless you can find someone who can undervolt your A-Data in the BIOS to 1.8v.

The one minidump cited that the Nvidia video driver nvlddmkm.sys as not being able to load. It is not saying this is the cause but it may be something to consider. I suggest doing the following...
1. Download Driver Sweeper free version to your desktop screen and install.
2. Download the latest diver(s) for your video card but don't install them.
3. Uninstall your video card drivers and reboot your PC into Safe Mode. Run Driver Sweeper but ONLY for the video card drivers. I had someone use it on their chipset drivers! If it doesn't find any video card drivers that is quite okay; just leave all other drivers alone.
4. Reboot and install new video card drivers.
