    Your dumps show no definitive cause and some still show memory as the problem.

    Anyway, start with SFC Scannow it will repair corrupted windows files and asks you to reboot when its done.
    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    Follow the tutorial below to make sure your hard drive is not having any problems.
    Disk Check
    You can also take hard drive test from your hard drives manufacturers website

    By the way, could you lend ram like from your friend? Insert them to your pc and see how your computer performs?

    Let me know

    Both the Check Disk and SFC scans came back clean (I believe you asked me to do the SFC scan before but I have performed it again).

    I will run memtest86+ overnight, and I might go out and buy some new RAM tomorrow to test (at the worst, I will just have more RAM :) )

    I'd advice you to lend from a neighbor or friend first for a test on how stable your computer is, if you see that its stable then you will be sure that its your ram has problems.

    Do you have a onboard graphics on your motherboard? If yes switch you can switch and see if your computer is crashing while using that way

    memtest86+ found an error on the RAM. Is one error enough to cause major problems?

    Are you overclocking your ram?

    Thanks & sorry if I ask too many random questions. I am new to debugging.

    Now can you tell me if this is your motherboard ASUS - Motherboards- ASUS P8P67 PRO

    Click on the specification tab, does your memory dim etc match with the ones given on that link?
    Is your ram a complete 8 gb stick or 4+4? If its 4 each just insert one stick at a time and see how your computer performs (freezes, bsod, hangs).

    Let me know

    The RAM matches (I checked when I bought the board/RAM), they are in the correct slots, and it is 2x4 GB Pieces. Don't worry about asking to many questions, i'm happy to anwser them :)

    I will try one slot at a time and see if that stops the hanging.
