Test your RAM using Memtest86+. Let it run until 6-8 passes have completed or errors have been found.
RAM - Test with Memtest86+
Test your video card using Furmark. Watch your machine's temps and stop the test if it starts to overheat or artifacts appear on the screen.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
Update your NVIDIA video card drivers from the below link.
Latest NVIDIA ForceWare Video Drivers Windows 7
I ran the Furmark test for 20 minutes, my card leveled temps out at around 85 degrees. no artifacts or anything appeared. my nvidia drivers are up to date with the 301.24 driver. ill run the memtest later this night
the memtest ran 3 and a half passes until it detected an error
Isolate each stick and run Memtest; just so we can find whether it's a single stick that is faulty.
each stick runs clean. last week i replaced one faulty stick that I had found, but it did not fix the problem
im gonna try running the computer with just 1 stick to see if it still crashes
