Okay, well, something I forgot to mention is that if I leave my computer off for a day or two, it will boot into windows just fine again. It will eventually start BSODing a lot though. Right now I'm on my computer, but that doesn't mean the problem is solved.
I'm starting to think it can't be the processor, because I even played four games of Supreme Commander with my friend yesterday (all of which I won), and it was fine. It seems to BSOD when I access files or visit certain websites. Only once did it do the blue screen of death in a game, which was Garry's Mod. If my processor is partially damaged, then I wouldn't be able to play games like these that take immense processing power. The memory test reported no errors, and I did 7 passes plus the 90 minute test.
My friend (the same one I played SupCom with) suggested that it could be my power supply... I don't know why I didn't think of that before. I remember that I swapped my older PSU with this one only like two months ago because mine had a really noisy fan. The next time I start getting a ton of BSODs again, I'll swap the power supplies and see if windows boots normally.
