Please remove the MSI software.

I had wondered if USB speedup was doing something since all of these USB devices were causing issues. I disabled it last night, and come to think of it, it hasn't bluescreened today. Unless it did for my wife before I woke up. There was a bit of a pattern of it blue-screening on the day's first bootup and at times it didn't do it again for the rest of the day.

Do I need to uninstall all of them, or just some and gradually see what happens? They were bloatware, but some have been useful. The live driver updater, for instance, was handy the other day for a bios update.

Well, not so much bloatware as some seem to control system settings.

In this case it isn't about bloatware, but about the MSI software using drivers that are known to causing BSODs. That is why I suggest to temporary remove all MSI programs. At least for the time of troubleshooting.

Okay, I removed them and so far so good. I thank you for all your help, by the way. This seems really promising because this is the second BS-free day.
