Windows 8 BSOD System Service Exception

My computer is just a few weeks old and has been working fine until today. I have gotten the blue screen of death many times today and each time it's said it has something to do with System_Service_Exception. If anyone could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.

Here are the files I've noticed are needed after looking through the forums a bit:

    I just turned off Windows' automatic updates. Haven't had a BSOD since. Also I don't use many of the Windows 8 apps that require signing in with an email.

    This is my exact problem. Brand new Toshiba machine, bought between Christmas and New Year's. Last week have begun getting the BSOD and it just now happened again. I am typing this on a Lenovo XP machine, while I wait for the other to reboot.

    You are not alone, I agree this is unacceptable. I keep thinking there will be some sort of automatic software update happening...but nothing. I am also at a loss as to what email client will actually work on Windows 8 but I imagine that topic is discussed elsewhere.

    I uninstalled the following updates and haven't got a BSOD ever since:

    2805940

    2799494

    2790655

    2778344

    2795944

    2803676

    At least one of them must be the culprit

    To uninstall, go to Control Panel -> Uninstall a program -> View installed updates -> Find the updates you want to uninstall, right click and choose Uninstall

    Also, remember to disable automatic update so that they won't be automatically installed again. In other word, don't choose "Install updates automatically (recommended)". Choose one of the others, like "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them"

    You can also hide the updates that you have uninstalled away so that Windows don't try to install them again. Don't worry, you can always come back to them later by clicking "Restore hidden updates"

    EDIT: you may want to try 2778344 first, it seems that's the culprit

    I also made a blog post here: http://chinbim.blogspot.ca/2013/02/systemserviceexception-bsod-in-windows-8.html

    I will try this. I don't know how to do that, though. So, if you can offer any guidance about how to uninstall and how to disable automatic updates, I'd appreciate it. (Otherwise, I'll google it and try to find out. That's how I ended up here!)

    Thank you!
