Verifier picked on Lycosa.sys, as Andre mentioned.

The other dump showed a  0x124 - that's WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR - "This bug check indicates that a fatal hardware error has occurred."  This can indicate that you have  some faulty hardware, unfortunately, probably the processor or perhaps the motherboard. Additional things you can try, though, just to see... Ensure that the system has adequate cooling and ventilation. Test RAM, reseat RAM and the processor if you can.  If the BIOS is the latest, consider reverting to a previous version and see if that helps.  If not, upgrade to the newest BIOS available.  Also double-check BIOS settings; perhaps, note current settings, reset the BIOS defaults, and then adjust those settings you know are necessary to adjust.  Double-check voltage, etc. and ensure/verify CPU compatibility with the motherboard.  If you're overclocking, stop.

The specific details about the hardware error you encountered indicate a fatal machine check exception due to Micro-Architectural Error (X64_0x124_GenuineIntel_PROCESSOR_MAE).  The specific reason is difficult to assess - it is characterized as "Internal unclassified".  

You do have a few stale drivers that you could remove or update to check the issue, but if that doesn't have an effect, focus on the referenced hardware.

    ??? I'm not Hijacking the topic...read my comments...I explained that if we have similar issues, then my details may help out. My issue has resolved (no occurrences to date (3 days)), I thought proving information that could narrow down the problem which will help to resolve the issue.

    Think before you type mate!!!

    Now, you have a different issue. 0x124 means hardware defects. Your is completely different compared to the topic starter ;) I always know what I'm doing and writing ;)
