Hi Macroman.
STOP 0x0000000A: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Usual causes: Kernel mode driver, System Service, BIOS, Windows, Virus scanner, Backup tool, compatibility
Your latest dump file lists Memory_Corruption as the probable cause which usually indicates out of date Drivers, incorrectly configured Memory Timings, mismatched Memory or Bad Memory.
Old and incompatible drivers can and do cause issues with Windows 7, often giving false error codes.
As a Priority:
gdrv.sys Fri Mar 13 03:22:29 2009 Gigabyte Easy Saver. If you cannot update this then uninstall it. Gigabyte.
vsdatant.sys Fri May 06 06:31:14 2011 ZoneAlarm Firewall is known to be a cause of BSOD's on many Windows 7 systems. If you have the 2011 version of ZA then you can uninstall it through the Progams and Features and all should be well. Make sure that Windows Firewall is enabled.
If you have an earlier version of ZA you will have to download the ZoneAlarm Remover to help you remove it. Uninstall ZoneAlarm through Programs and Features. Boot to safe mode and run the ZoneAlarm Remover. Reboot. Make sure that Windows Firewall is enabled.
Alternatively
Try this Microsoft hotfix if you wish to try and keep ZoneAlarm: Stop Error 0x07F when you run apps. that transfer data by the UDP protocol in Windows 7. I can neither verify or discount this fix. It may work, it may not.
Drivers that pre-date Windows 7. Update:
speedfan.sys Sun Sep 24 14:26:48 2006 Speedfan.
Drivers with Updates:
jraid.sys Wed Jan 27 08:58:17 2010 JMicron Raid Driver June '11
nusb3hub.sys Fri Nov 19 01:34:24 2010
nusb3xhc.sys Fri Nov 19 01:34:25 2010 Go to your Motherboard Mfr. Support website (or NEC/Renesas) and update your USB 3.0 drivers. A June 2011 set are available Here.
Rt64win7.sys Tue Aug 23 14:55:41 2011 Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller v7.050 If you're unsure about manually installing drivers then choose the Win7 and WinServer 2008 R2 Auto Installation Program (SID:1483XXX) option to download.
RTKVHD64.sys Tue Aug 30 10:24:37 2011 Realtek HD Audio R2.67
Download and run CPU-Z. Take screenshots**/snips of the CPU tab, Mainboard tab, Memory tab and all the slot #'s under the SPD tab.
Go to Post Reply, click on the Go Advanced button and attach the screenshots**/snips to your post for all the RAM experts to see by using the paper clip you will find on the top toolbar. Do not zip them up.
**If screenshots, please crop.
Let us know how it goes.

Most of the times the BSOD errors are caused by faulty RAM or hard-drives. But if you are using a 64 bit OS, the errors can be also due to faulty software. Sometimes it can be due to corrupted (vsdatant.sys) file caused by drivers of third-party software.

If you think that it might be heat related, then use something like HWInfo:
http://www.hwinfo.com/index.html
Log the sensor data to file, so if it crashes the you will know what is going on.
Hope this helps.
