It sounds like a hardware/driver issue. You need to update the BIOS to the newest version.
Was unsuccessful at viewing the dmp file.

Have you run Memtest? (On blue screen errors, I like to run memtest overnight) ISO available at memtest86.com.

Are you running latest bios from your motherboard or PC manufacturer?

Have you run Windows Update and installed optional driver updates?

Have you checked Control Panel / Action Center to see if Windows has flagged either drivers or programs as being problematic?

Have you checked the Event Log under both System and Applications for Errors coinciding with your BSOD?
It's difficult to diagnose what the problem could be with just one minidump.  Please attach some more if you have them.

The minidump shows FAMv4 as being the cause.

This is commonly used by 3rd party backup software.  What backup software do you have installed on your pc.  Try updating it to the latest version or uninstalling it.

Really need more minidumps to assist properly

Did you try and download the Micro$oft Windows 7 updates?

I had similar blue screens happening right after installing Win7 on my clone PC, downloaded Win7 updates, and the blue screens stopped happening.
if this is a dell computer... it will work wonders if you make sure you have the latest BIOS & drivers.They have a tool for each of their computer models to run & check EVERYTHING, downlpoads them, and then installes them. Very easy.
I agree with DIIRE: suggestion all the dumps that have been uploaded point to the same software.

Follow DIIRE: suggestion and your issue will be resolved.
