I've been hitting constant BSODs (Blue Screens of Death) over the past few days, and to make things worse, each one shows a different error message. The errors I'm seeing are BAD_POOL_HEADER, Kernel Mode Heap Corruption, Kernel Security Check Failure, System Service Exception, and Bad Pool Caller. I've tried a lot to troubleshoot this myself: I ran Malwarebytes, performed memory scans, and checked for corrupted files. I even uninstalled and reinstalled my display adapter and used several CMD commands like chkdsk, but nothing has helped. I've even done a scan that found some corrupt files initially, but since then it says everything's fine. I'm a bit lost and wondering what my next steps should be. I'm also willing to share my minidump files if that would assist in figuring this out. Here's a link to them: [https://files.catbox.moe/mvhcox.7z](https://files.catbox.moe/mvhcox.7z)

It sounds like you're dealing with some serious memory corruption issues. First off, have you checked your dump files? These logs can give more insight into the nature of the BSODs. You can find them at C:WindowsMinidump if your system can boot into Windows or Safe Mode. Zip those files and upload them to a sharing service, as they would really help in diagnosing the problem. Helpful guides are available online if you need help with this process.
You've got a lot going on with those dump files. It might be worth checking if you have software issues with programs like Opera that showed up in some dumps. Try removing them, and instead, use something like Firefox. Also, check the status of Windows updates and maybe run the DISM and SFC commands you mentioned for good measure—it can sometimes find and fix corruption that other tools miss.
From what you've described, those BSODs seem to indicate a memory issue or conflicts with running processes. I see you have an Intel i7-7700 and 16GB of RAM, which shouldn't normally cause problems. Make sure your memory isn't overclocked, as that can lead to instability. If you've installed any recent updates or software (like Opera or Avast), consider uninstalling those too, as they might be causing conflicts. Also, running some CMD commands can help check health and system files.
