Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the PC world and just made the transition from console to PC, needless to say I'm not regretting my decision in the slightest and only regret not upgrading sooner. In the last two days however I've attempted to log on my computer, the screen goes fuzzy and the power cuts out. I attempt to log on several times and after attempting the windows start up repair process multiple times to restore it to an earlier date (not too sure if it actually is restoring as problem is repeated) and my computer runs fine for however long i play until i try to turn it on next session, usually 12-24 hours later.
My specs are as follows:
Motherboard: P67-UD3R-B3
Graphics card: 6870 Raedeon
SSD (don't have a HD): Corsair Force SSD 3 ATA (120gb)
Intel i5 2500k CPU @3.30.ghz
Not too sure of the other specs. As I'm new to PC's.

I have not downloaded any form of torrent besides a perfectly legitimate older version of TS3 (required it for ArmA's ACE and ACRE) which were again downloaded from Six updater and Steam.
I have Microsoft security essentials installed and ran a scan after i came across the first BSOD, only one dodgy file came up after this, which was an add spammer and was promptly removed.

I do believe it is a problem with one of my drivers as the second i started playing the DayZ mod (recently installed) it crashed and took two hours to re-boot. Attached is a screenshot of the BSOD error displayed 30mins ago.

Also attached is the start-up repair errors i received after the restoration had been completed.
Again sorry if some of the stuff on here is irrelevant or I'm lacking critical info which I'll happily supply, as I am new to PC's and am still learning. Thank you for the help.

(EDIT: sorry about the potato like quality.)

alright i honestly don't know what the problem is there but i guess it is some kind of writing or data malfunction of windows! the most appropriate think would be just to backup all the data you have (which can't be much with only 120 GB of storage) and reinstall windows completely, which means format you drive with the windows installer and make sure that before your SATA mode is set to ahci. Then just reinstall the os and see weather it runs.
