I would recommend running memtestx86 in this case. Try to let it run and see if it passes at least the first 6 tests. Any errors during the tests would indicate a corruption in your memory.
Download memtestx86 from here: http://www.memtest86.com/download.html
Bug Check Error Code: 0xA
Argument 1 Param - (1) Memory referenced
Just to verify which driver it could be I would also suggest running Driver Verifier...
Driver Verifier: Note make sure you backup your data first
While you are doing that I'm going to take a further look into the addressed that was refereneced in memory at the time of the crash and some of the symbols referenced in the stack trace for further analysis. I would recommend opening your Event Viewer to check for any possible related warnings or critical error messages too.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: Your "Page File" is referenced in the bug check. (Symbol: nt!MiReplenishPageSlist)
I would recommend also running this through the command prompt:
Code:
chkdsk /rIs your paging file managed by windows or set manually?

I've got driver verifier configured as you said. Malwarebytes started it's scheduled scan, so I'll do driver verifier when it's done.I've got the Pagefile set manually. 4.0 gbs on ssd and 16 gbs. on each Caviar Black. All are probably way too much. I've also got Superfetch disabled in Services for the ssd and it and Prefetch disabled in the bios. Both are set to 0.

You only need the one pagefile for your system. I'd say that with running an ssd you'd be better off with it placed at the START of one of your Caviar drives in it's own partition. Set that to maybe 8gb. Tell the system where your pagefile is and let Windows control how big it physically is.

Thanks Elmer. Windows managing it on the ssd went from 49.6 with a 4 gb. pagefile to 64.6 gbs. I'm gonna leave a 2 gb. on the ssd. and maybe a 4gb. on the Caviar. I also forgot that I downloaded Freemake Video Convertor Saturday night. I had a 2nd bsod, so I removed it. I don't believe it's my ram as I got the 2nd 8.0gb. kit last Monday. It's the same as the other kit I already had. G-Skill Ripjaws Series F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL with timings of CL 9, tRCD 9, tRP 9, tRAS 24 , tRC 40 and CR 2T. CPUz states tRAS 25, but the ram says 9-9-9-24 and so does MSI Control Center. I don't use Control Center other than for reference.

I just Binged it. That's my Hauppage tv tuner. Guess, I'll be heading to there site now. WMC is set to start recording in a hour. Ram passed memtest86+. Just went to Hauppage's site. The current driver is the one I have install. BUT, when I installed my ssd, I forgot that Microsoft had 2 WGA updates for the tuner. Hauppage had links to both updates on there site.

If you are taking those updates, let your system run for at least 48 hours of operation, with periods of general computer use. If you're worried about leaving your computer on for that long, you can make sure the room is vented properly, open a window or something, or get a fan pointed towards the tower, with or without the side cover on the case, it's up to you. See if a BSOD occurs then.

Actually I think the 2 updates were added to W7 SP1 as Windows told me they weren't needed. I uninstalled and reinstalled everything from Hauppage. I then got another bsod. I went into Safe Mode and NIS 2011 found 3 threats in old zip downloads I had. I let it remove them and ran it again. Malwarebytes Pro & SUPERAntiSpyware Professional both came up clean in safe mode aterwards. When I opened WMC and clicked on Live TV was when the bsod happened, so I reinstalled my motherboard drivers. WMC Live TV works now and so does Hauppauge's WinTV 7. I'll wait until a little later to make sure no bsod's appear. The weird thing was the driver that was causing it was some type of IR driver under System Components. I checked Device Manager in Safe Mode and there were 2 under system devices with the yellow exclamation, not the Hauppage driver's. Though when I searched what you listed it was Hauppage that came up. I wasn't even thinking it had anything to do with WMC. I figured it was either ther eason the magicJack update appeared or the Freemake Video Convertor software. Last time I did any recording in WMC was Friday and it went without a hitch.

Yeah, my computer uses haupagge for some kind of LiveTV device as well, but I never use it that much, It's always WMplayer for me, not Windows Media Center, although everything does work for me, for some reason lots of people have troubles with Hauppage drivers...
After letting it run for a while, a reboot would be recommended, to make sure that all settings are embedded into Windows permanently.

I'd love to get one of the Ceton card's, but I'm not paying $300+ for it. That's almost more than my motherboard & cpu cost. The weird thing about my current tuner is that I had to disable C1E in the bios, in order for it to get anything. I miss my old AverMedia pci tuner. It had the radio on it also. I may get another one of their tuner's. Won't be until after New Year's, though. Next months a Phenom 2 1100T, then a 1000-1200 watt modular psu and then another HIS IceQ X Turbo X HD6950 2.0 gb. video card. After those, I'm taking a expense/upgrade breather.

With all the amount of RAM you currently possess I would recommend that you just leave only 2 GB on your SSD and remove it from both of your hard drives. Paging Files prefer the fastest location possible and that will be your RAM and SSD.
Believe me you don't need all that much with the amount of RAM you're running.
