Alright, I tried to boot it up today after I got home from work, and now I can't even log in without it BSODing.
I logged on in SafeMode and told it not to automatically reboot. This is what the BSOD said:
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
*** STOP: 0x000000D1 (0x000001A8, 0x00000005, 0x00000001, 0xF797C4C0)
*** nvgts.sys - Address F797C4C0 base at F796A000, Datestamp 472236eb
I noticed the "nvgts.sys" on the bottom... is it a problem with my graphics driver? Or, since I have an nvidia chipset, could that be it?
EDIT:
I almost forgot! I BSODed on this system a couple times before I installed those new devices. I just figured it was unrelated to the current problem.
The other times that I BSODed was after I installed the latest nvidia graphics driver. I tried to then install a trial of the program Badaboom (which uses nVidia CUDA technology to compress videos). It could only be installed with the latest driver. Anyway, after the installer finished, I got a BSOD. When I logged back on, I tried to run the program and got another BSOD. I don't know what their reports said, but it most likely had something to do with the nvidia driver.
I'm going to roll back my driver and see if I can boot normally.
