To test for any conflicting software, open Windows Task Manager (usually CTRL+ALT+DEL) and click on the Processes tab. Next, click on the Image Name to sort the running processes alphabetically. Next, one-by-one, right click on any process that has your User Name and click End Process. Keep ending these processes until either you no longer receive that error or you run out of User processes to end.


To test your system for driver issues, there are a couple of free demo programs that you could try. It should be noted here that in order to use these utilities to update any outdated drivers, you'll have to pay $30.


The two programs I recommend:
  1. Driver Reviver by ReviverSoft
  2. DriverScanner 2012 by Uniblue
Additionally, at you discretion, you could add another utility to additional stability to your system. Auslogics BootSpeed 6 will monitor your system and clean up, speed up and fix your computer to make it run as fast and stable as new. BootSpeed 6 however will not fix any software driver issues. If you or anyone wishes to check into this utility, feel free to go here:

I tried all of these. It didn't work for me. I guess I need a new computer. This one's memory isn't that great. Hopefully I'll get one next weekend.
