First off welcome to the forums!

I would first suggest doing a hard battery reboot, by removing the battery and reinserting it and restarting the device...

Otherwise have you tried factory resetting the device yet, sounds like it could be your last option.

Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) is what i get

so i plug it into my w7 laptop which is x64 like this pc and ofc it works

Yeah i tried soft reset, hard reset factory wipe in recovery mode and now i really am hating this phone.......

ive uninstalled the drivers here, rebooted, shut down, and i cant get this pc to work with it kies didnt work either so i uninstalled that
