"Bugcheck Code 126"

Friend's Win10 machine keeps crashing -- several times a day, while she
was working with it. Desktop computer, no heat problem. Bug check
0x7e. Googling has resulted in circular references,
incomprehensibility, and a couple of firefox/linux crashes at the
microsoft site, along with one possibility that the cause is a faulty
USB driver -- that just happened to be one guy's problem, but I saw
others for the 0x7e thing. The Event Viewer produced the following. Can
anybody translate this into actual information?
