Here's a quick test to check out your graphics card. Make sure you take the necessary anti static precautions and remove your graphics card and connect direct to the motherboard. See if the problem still persists. If it does it might be worth trying a different cable.
I done 10 Passes with memtest and no errors and also no issues when i done the SeaTools Long Generic test and also no difference with the gfx card
so no errors on both, correct?
if you got no errors, pleaseperform a clean boot. Please make sure you reboot and do everything a tutorial instructs. Then report back your results.
However, if there were errors, weren't sure you did something right, or something of that sort, we'll wait for mitchell65 or someone who knows more about hardware problems than me.
Compare your install to the perfect install compiled in Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows
to see how close it comes. You don't say whether whether you're running the crappy factory preinstall or not.
If you still have Updates queued then these are the first thing that should be installed after enabling Automatically deliver drivers via Windows Update (Step 3), run all rounds of Important and Optional Updates until completion. Then check if there are any drivers missing in Device Manager.
Then if necessary work through the Troubleshooting Steps for Windows 7
