Programs crashing, computer bluescreening; error code MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

I've attached three minidump files from the last two days. My computer, for the last few months, has been bluescreening at seemingly random intervals--sometimes while I'm not even using it--and it's recently been worsening. Additionally, certain programs have been crashing or refusing to open when they previously worked perfectly. I don't know what program to open minidump files with, or I'd try to read through them myself.

Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.

    The minidumps only indicate memory corruption. No drivers are mentioned.

    I suggest doing the following:

    1 = Go to the MSI website using the link below, download the latest Chipset driver, and install it.

    https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MEG-Z390-ACE/support#driver

    Driver name: Intel Chipset Driver

    Version: 10.1.19502.8391

    (Extract the ZIP file, double-click the file "SetupChipset" to run it, and follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.)

    2 = I noticed that the motherboard BIOS is outdated. I suggest you update it by following MSI's instructions.

    Then, see if the system will work stably.

    If the crash occurs again after doing this, please share the minidump it created.

    Feel free to ask any questions you may have.
