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.
