Windows 10: Increasing BSOD even in safe mode, but avoided on new install on another hard drive

Windows 10 - latest update. BSOD increasingly appears - now within 3 minutes or so. On Samsung SSD 970 Pro 512 GB hard drive in a custom built desktop that ran fine for two years. The stop error appears to be related to a USB Netgear A6210 wifi device that I tried but soon removed. I removed all the drivers, but perhaps something residual remains. I even tried reinstalling the A6210 and properly removing it, but that did not help. Of course, that could be a red herring. It could be something else. It was just in looking at the critical error files that I saw A6210 and wondered why it was still

KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED on fresh install. Safe mode works fine.

Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.508)Attachment 297834
Error: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
This is a fresh install of windows. The only thing that has been installed is the video card driver & software.

Note: I can only run windows in normal mode for a couple minutes before I get BSOD. The included log .zip file is while I am in safe mode. I DO NOT GET BSOD IN SAFE MODE.

Things I have already tried:

• Uninstalling then updating my video card drivers.
• Clean boot.
• Removing any unnecessary hardware e.g. web cam, card reader

I still hit the same error every time. Sometimes the BSOD comes in a few seconds, other times I can use my PC for up to 10 minutes before getting it. Usually it is sometime in 3-5 minutes after logging into Windows.
Originally I was getting this BSOD error and in my troubleshooting I made things worse to the point my drive would not launch windows and all repair attempts failed. So I gave up and used my other hard drive and did a fresh install of Windows. I am getting the same error that I was before, KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED.

I have done various troubleshooting steps but am willing to start from scratch to narrow down if this is hardware and if so what piece of hardware.

For context here is some of the programs I have tried and the summarized outcome:

• Driver Verifier - No issues
• sfc - corrupt files detected that were unrepairable (CBS LogAttachment 297844)
• dism - no corruption detected

 

Installing XP : IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Boot in step-by-step confirmation mode, and see what service or drive is causing the bsod.
