Repeated Crashes
Could I please have some help understanding the cause of the repeated crashes?
They're all EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT which suggests bad programming, no? But I can't figure out what addon is causing it. I've disabled all the most likely addons, to no avail.

Basically, an OOM (Out Of Memory) means the system is having issues with the RAM.

Could you please run a tool from http://memtest.org/
in order to check the integrity of your RAM?
You will need a thumb or disk drive to install it on.
Do you let Windows handle the page file or did you set a fixed size ?
Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Performance -> Settings
If you use a fixed size for the page file then try the former and let Windows handle the page file. How to determine the appropriate page file size for 64-bit versions of Windows {web link}

OMG! Thank you @FredMcD.
I disabled my pagefile.sys to shrink my drive and forgot to turn it back on again. No wonder my poor PC's been unstable!
Thank you so much for finding this. And now I know what OOM meant!
Glad to help. Safe Surfing.
