Bad Pool Header and DPC Watchdog Violation Errors (BSOD)

Question
-
Over the past couple of weeks I have had multiple BPH and DPC errors that crash my pc every day. From what I've noticed DPC errors freeze my screen and take 30 seconds to a minute before I get Blue Screen of Death whereas BPH crashes my PC immediately. I have uninstalled all other antivirus and removed software that could have caused this in the last couple weeks. I have also attempted to update many of my drivers my it could still be a driver issue because I was far from comprehensive. Linked is the contents of my Minidump folder under C:/WINDOWS

Edit1: After crashing again just after posting this I have another DMP file from my Minidump folder that I will link below. Also I did a System File Check through the command prompt and got no errors.

Hi Harrison,
I noticed your computer is HP envy 17 notebook, but I found so many series under envy 17, what's the exact computer model?
”00000000`00000000 : fffff803`ff8237c8 ffffce8c`9155d800 00000000`00000000 ffffce8c`9e56ea50 : NETIO+0x1c10a"
I noticed your network card have some problem, please boot into Safe Mode without network and check if BSOD symptom occur.
Try to go to OEM manufacturer website and download the latest version network driver.
Your existing BIOS driver is released from 2014, so please update BIOS driver to the latest, too.
If the issue persists, please download Driver Verifier and run with "Automatically select all drivers installed on this computer" to check the existing driver.
Bests,
