I have been getting help in the BSoD section of the forums (thread here) and the person helping me says that it is probably a hardware issue and in his last post (quoted at end of post) he gave some instructions I couldn't figure out on a GPU test and list of CPU test. I think they are supposed to be links to the programs but the first one is a 401 and the rest, well I search and found some of the tests, but some just sound too generic. I can run the programs I did find but I don't know what I am supposed to be doing with them. So basically what I am looking for is some help with these tests, and figuring out if I have a bad CPU. Or anything else for that matter.
Malware was never really a suspect for me but I did run clean test.

You have multiple (more than 8) probably causes. Three crashes were related to your Avast, 5 to your video driver, etc In cases like this it is almost always either malware, or a piece of hardware. I would run malwarebytes, and stress tests. Please download the free version of Malwarebytes. Update it immediately. Do a full system scan Let us know the results at the end.

NOTE: Set the alarm to go off at 90ºC. Then watch the system from that point on. If the system doesn't display a temperature, watch it constantly and turn it off at the first sign of video problems. DO NOT leave it it unmonitored, it can DAMAGE your video card!!! If the temperature gets above 105ºC, quit the test - the video card is overheating. - Click "Quit" to exit CPU Stress Tests: - http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...19182&lang=eng - 7Byte : Hot CPU Tester Pro - 7Byte : BurnIn64 - CPU Stress test - Overclock.net - Overclocking.net - Fossil Free Online CPU Load or Stress Test. - CPU Stability Test description, System Resources Tune-Up.
