    Run Memtest once more froma cold boot after your computer has been off for a while. If there are no errors, test your CPU and your RAM with Prime95 following the instructions in this tutorial:

    Run 3 separate tests, one on each of the settings (Blend, Small FFTs, Large FFTs). Post back with the results.

    Ran the FurMark stress test for about an hour.

    Temperature leveled off at 76C and remained constant.

    Looks like I figured it out.
    It appears that the crashes had something to do with a corrupt font folder.

    As I mentioned the system would crash everytime I tried to open the font folder.
    I ran the Office 2007 repair program which apperantly replaced the font folder (reduced 803 fonts down to 340 fonts)
    After the repair I can now opent the font folder without a BSOD
    I can now open outlook emails that would also cause a BSOD.

    I guess only time will tell but right now seems like the problem is resolved.

    Thanks for your help.

    It has been three days and no more BSODs!!!!!!!!

    It apprears that the corrupt font folder was the problem.
    Reloading MS Office, which replaces the font folder, seems to have solved the problem.
    I can now open the font folder and MS Outlook email without crashing the computer.

    Thanks for your help and your patience.
    I learned a lot running all of the diagnostic tools you recommended.
