Random BSOD then restart, believe it to be hardware but unsure
Hi everyone, and THANK YOU just for having these forums, let alone for helping me with this issue.
Let me start from the beginning. I was running XP on my old box. It was too slow, so I bought a new mobo, cpu, and memory. Oh, and a SATA optical drive since the new mobo wouldn't take an IDE. I downloaded a clean copy of Win7 Pro from Digital River, and installed on my hard drive. Then activated it with a key I purchased.
There seems to be no rhyme or reason to when the BSOD hits. Browsing the Internet, not browsing. Streaming music, not streaming music. Usually it's just sitting there. I am not even using it.
Things I have done:
Memtest - Checks clean
Chkdsk - Checks clean
Restore to earlier time - no effect
Updated the BIOS - no effect
I am hoping that the SWEET SFtool will help you guys help me.
