I'm not the expert but, I'm getting the feeling that my CPU is the problem. This feeling comes mostly from the fact that its the only part I haven't replaced.

EDIT
I got three consecutive blue screens earlier, they were all occurring at precisely the same moment during playback of an avi file so I deleted that. I got a picture of the last blue screen if its of any interest.

ATM I've got an eVGA GeForce 7950 GTKO.
But I went back about 7 pages in the thread and didn't see where I mentioned that, must be further back.

Are you ever getting any display type problems?
Does your system lock up still?

If it hasn't been run, I would recommend leaving it running for at least 12 hours. If you get errors, try only one stick. If you still get errors, try the other. Once you stop getting errors, you can find out if it's one stick of ram or both (or neither )

I am not really having problems with the display. If I am reading that question correctly that is. Everything displays on the screen as it should, untill I get blue screens of course.Are you ever getting any display type problems?

As far as lock ups, I'm pretty sure you mean freezing right? Well that doesn't happen hardly as much. I think that has happened only once since about May or so, maybe even further back but I can't really remember.
Actually I can't confirm this, it was much too long ago. So I guess I'm running some more memtest. ATM I can't because my computer is all apart right now because I'm trying to put my new power supply in (PC Power & Cooling 850 SSI), I had it connected before but not inside the case you see, (it wouldn't fit).I've been going through this post and I got to the point where it looks like memtest has not been run since you added your second stick of RAM back. Can you confirm this?

Before that I was just doing a little bit of catching up when I got a random restart with no blue screen. After it restarted I checked to see if that option had been ticked and it wasn't.... weird.
Anyway I'm running memtest right now, last night the power went out so I have to run it again. Its on the 8th pass right now and no errors so far.

You have replaced your video card.
You have preformed a fresh reinstall.
You basically reinstalled on a new hard drive.
Ran memory tests without errors.
Am I missing anything in the recap?

Also, a while back I was told not to install any windows updates; I still haven't. Would it be alright for me to do that now?
