| Windows 7: Crashing: Gotten me at my wits end. |

Crashing: Gotten me at my wits end. As the title states, no ,matter what I do, I am constantly crashing. At first I thought it was a compatibility issue with my RAM, as my old DIMMs were not on the QVL for my motherboard. So today I bought new DIMMs that were on the QVL, and much to my surprise, after a while on Team Fortress 2, BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH! I have just about given up. I reformatted my hard disk just for this OS, thinking that it would solve the problems I have been having in the past, but nothing I have done has fixed it. Please... please someone help me.I'll upload the memory dump somewhere and link it once I have finished.
EDIT: I crashed again in the process of uploading the dump file, so I guess now I have TWO dumps to link. Also, I just set my system specs for your viewing.
Another Edit, now with 100% more Minidump!
This one was while TF2 was running: Will Host For Food!
This one happened while simply browsing the web: Will Host For Food!
And here is the whole story of me in my own little corner of computing HELL: http://www.willhostforfood.com/access.php?fileid=71243

someone here will have the answer if we get enough info

It has never simply frozen like that, no. Crashing however has always been an issue, regardless of OS. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 (7100) CPU Intel Q8200. Good CPU, will overclock.

I haven't disappeared. I am just having trouble getting the dump uploaded. Just to make sure that I am even uploading the right file, it's C:\Windows\MEMORY.dmp right? | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 (7100) CPU Intel Q8200. Good CPU, will overclock.

If it's regardless of OS, then it's a fair bet that it's hardware.
The usual questions:
Are you overclocking?
Have you run memtest86+? Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool
What is your PSU rated at?
Is it self-built and been crash ing since day one? Quote: it's C:\Windows\MEMORY.dmp right? No, that's too large.

No, I am not overclocking.
I have yet to run memtest, but I am lacking software to write an ISO to a disk.
It is self built, and I have been using/upgrading it with varying degrees of success. The worst crashing fits I have had occurred after this most recent overhaul.
My PSU is rated at 750 Watts.
Also, I guess I shouldn't say "Regardless of OS" since I ran Linux and never crashed.
If anyone wants to be cute and say "Then just use Linux," get out.
Alright, I'll upload the minidumps instead. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 (7100) CPU Intel Q8200. Good CPU, will overclock.
