My desktop runs Windows 7 SP1, and the issue I'm having right now is that every time I turn on the computer and get to the login screen I instantly blue screen (info below, picture linked). When exactly the blue screen occurs is random, it has happened before and after I've typed in my password to log in.
Luckily Safe Mode still works. Info from the post-crash pop-up:

I'll link the minidump & XML file at the end of this post.
According to what I gleaned from Google, the 7F error comes from either hardware failure or faulty drivers (correct me if I'm wrong). The only new programs I can think of that I installed within the past week are, in order from least recent to most recent, the SikuliX IDE (an uninstall reinstall of an older version to a newer version) and TeamViewer (an uninstall reinstall from 7 to 9). After all three programs were installed, I used them with no problems and even restarted once to apply changes for a Windows Update before this problem occurred.
I went and got BlueScreenView and opened up the minidump. First file in the list was ntoskrnl.exe. I searched Google and this forum for other problems with this executable, but couldn't find anything substantial. So now I'm here to ask for help. I think fixing this might involve me editing some files in the registry, but I'm not 100% sure. In the meantime, I'm following the Driver Verifier wiki article on this website to find out which drivers are screwing up in case the minidump file isn't enough for you guys to help me figure out the problem. I'll post the results of that within a day.

Thank you all in advance for the help!
Edit: I took a look at the EventViewer and read the most recent logs at Error Level. They were all either "DistributedCOM" source with EventID 10005, or "Service Control Manager" source with EventID 7001. The DistributedCOM errors all had various parameters (WSearch, fdPHost, BITS), and they were all in the form "DCOM got error "1084 (for WSearch) / 1068 (for fdPHost & BITS)" attempting to start the service (previous service goes here) with arguments "" in order to run the server: {different registry each time}.
If you guys would like more information, I would be happy to provide it.
