I'm not following any of this; it's all over the place.

If the laptop is under warranty, the best advice I can give to a novice is to backup personal data and do a system restore back to factory delivered state. If the problem persists, you likely have a hardware issue that needs to be addressed under warranty. Best to open a case with the manufacturer while there is still warranty left, that way it can be referenced later if the warranty expires but a hardware problem is identified. They will honor the warranty if the problem was documented during the warranty period.

If not under warranty, pull one of the sticks of RAM out and see if it continues to crash. The idea is to see if the problem is related to a particular RAM module.

In my experience, BSoD type crashes are usually the result of a hardware problem, and usually related to a bad memory module.
