INFO: Some foreign modules were found injected into outerra.exe. Note that these modules can interfere with the rendering, causing black screen or rendering artifacts. It's advised either to stop the programs or unload them.
The following potentially problematic modules were found:
C:\Windows.old\Program Files\Steam\gameoverlayrenderer.dll (Valve Corporation, Steam Game Overlay Renderer), version 02.32.45.01

I don't know but it might be worth a shot to disable steam overlay renderer. (Disable steam)

Did you try to delete/move eng.cfg and world.cfg files away, to test it with default settings, in case some config change is responsible?

I hope it's not a hardware problem, but it might be something with the drivers (or 3rd party programs). I would try a clean reinstall of the drivers (via http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/display_driver_uninstaller_download.html) to be sure, there used to be problems with AMD drivers getting into some unclean state, and not upgrading properly anymore without a clean uninstall.

There is a little utility called whocrashed by resplendence software that might help you figure out what's wrong. It depends on if the computer actually crashes or if it just freezes. If it writes a crash report this utility will tell you which the problematic driver is.

I made a little review of it on my blog because it has helped me many times. You might see if it can tell you something.

Did you try whocrashed to see if the system was able to leave a message of what could be wrong?

That does not mean it's not a driver, it just froze instead of crashing, and that program only analyzes crash dumps.
Actually it's likely that the freezing is caused by a driver or hardware error, because user-space programs normally can't freeze the OS - they would just become unresponsive. Hard system freezes (where you can't use hotkeys like CTRL+ALT+DEL) are caused by hanging drivers.

Maybe you can try this: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/101379-driver-verifier-enable-disable.html to force crash instead of freezing, and the resulting crash dump can be checked by whocrashed then.

2. reinstalled GPU driver and Did nothing.
3. Checked all Drivers every single on is up to date.
4. Deleted/Uninstalled every Unknown and Not Used Program Recently and old added. (Rebooted)

Maybe re-installing the OS? :D
That always works for me when the OS has serious problems and there are no other options left...
