I think the issue can be counted as solved now. No more BSODs after installing NVIDIA driver from laptop vendor ASUS. 

Thank you all for help.

I hope this thread will help to other people too.

I can't mark my Answer - as the Answer for the Question. So i only renamed the 1st post.

    HI,

    I might suggest to start a new topic on the issue to get the best help and to avoid confusion.

    In that topic it would help to provide the minidump files in the C:\Windows\Minidump folder.

    Copy the minidump files to another folder such as a folder on the Desktop and then upload them to a public folder on OneDrive or similar site and provide a link.

    To start a new topic click "Participate" and then click "Ask a Question" in the following link:

    Hi RahulPriyadarshi,

    If you have Windows 8.1, as I suppose, you can use this Microsoft tool:

    Create installation media for Windows 8.1

    Hope this helps.
