If motherboard driver updates fail it might be a hardware problem. You are getting combination Memory Management and IRQL errors. the System_Service_Exception might just be from corruption caused by unexpected shutdowns or RAM. (fix by running sfc /scannow after a chkdsk scan)
To me it looks like its possibly a bad RAM stick or an incompatible RAM module (running at a frequency the motherboard/processer does not support).
At this point I recommend removing hardware from the computer. Reduce your ram down to 1 ram module and see if you continue to crash. If not, add back one at a time till you start crashing again. Once you crash again take the module that you added last and put it in the first slot, removing all other ram modules (to make sure its the ram and not the motherboard). If you crash with that module you found your problem.
If you crash with just one ram module in use a different one, then use a different slot. If you are still crashing start removing all other hardware except your hard drive (and maybe your video card if your motherboard does not have onboard video). Add them back one at a time if you are no longer crashing.
If it ends up being not your ram but another hardware component look for updated drivers, failing that replace it.
Keep in mind that while memtest can find errors it only finds them as they happen and your crashes do not happen often enough to consider memtests results as reliable. If you want a reliable result you will probably want to run memtest for a long period of time.
