Good Call, Essexboy. Thank you.
Rappy99,
If Essexboy's solution does the trick, then you're done, though may need to give additional attention to security settings.
That AVAST feature "should" work without otherwise crippling your machine.

If not, then let's have another look at your Display adapter.
Your minidump is suggesting a problem with the nVidia Driver.
Uninstall the nVidia driver and then use Driver Cleaner to remove only any remnants of nVidia driver.
Install the latest nVidia driver.
________________________
If still no joy, physically remove the graphics driver card, clean and re-seat it.
________________________
If still no joy, go to Control Panel - Display to progressively decrease Hardware Accelleration.
Start - Control Panel - Display Settings(tab) Advanced(button -Troubleshooting(tab)
From the Troubleshoot panel, adjust the Hardware Acceleration one-notch-at-a-time and run the machine for a while to test to see if BSOD continues to appear.
If BSOD, then go back to Display Troubleshoot panel and adjust Hardware Acceleration to the left one-more-notch, and retest. Continue progressively reducing Hardware Acceleration until free from BSOD.

If still no joy, then an older nVidia driver may work. Selecting older nVidia driver will be on a try-it-and-see basis to check for results.
Keep us posted.
