I starting to believe its a faulty motherboard.
I'll ask for help with this one, I hope it will come soon enough.

James all that dump stuff is way over my head but try these
http://www.superantispyware.com/
http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/(do again)
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/download from bleeping computer
then try the two rootkits from here Free Malware Removal Tools
Have you another machine to try that RAM in? and have you tried swapping the original stuff out for some basic RAM sticks?
Two more things you can do is
this PSU - Jump Start
and

Please DO NOT try to disassemble the device yourself.
One final thing correct volts DO NOT mean correct current think of it like a car battery that has the correct volts showing but no charge (current / amps) enough to swing it over and give you ignition as well.
I am still looking for a solution. I opened msinfo32 and ran a search for "atk" of which there are 2 entries. The ACPI utility software and an error report showing this:I should be running the updated version (ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Win7 32&64-bit from Drivers and Download (M4A77TD PRO) [Official Site - Main Page]). From this same site I downloaded and installed the latest version of "ASUS AMD Cool&Quiet utility V 2.18.01 for Windows XP/XP 64bit/Vista 32bit/Vista 64bit/7 32bit/7 64bit" as well.8/20/2013 12:01 AM Windows Error Reporting Fault bucket , type 0

It seems like the main problems are when the computer goes into sleep mode now it won't come back out and I have to manually reset which seems bad for the computer to have to do all the time. I am considering removing power saving options so it won't go to sleep mode but I don't want to have to shut down my computer every time I need to go do something else for a while...
James I noticed you are downloading the AMD stuff that is for the power options?? Have you seen this? How to enable AMD Cool'n'Quiet Feature ? - YouTube I know it is an XP on a MSI board but might be of help.
I looked in here too don't know if you have or not Search Drivers and Downloads under all chipsets and processors.
Now it might not be of any consequence but maybe the NVidia drivers are messing with the AMD stuff??
Hello jamestcoop.
Can you post following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions for one more time?
Thank you all for the help! I know we can figure this out (hopefully without me spending hundreds on a new mobo/etc).
I downloaded and ran (in series) each of the programs from:
SUPERAntiSpyware | Remove Malware | Remove Spyware - AntiMalware, AntiSpyware, AntiAdware!
and
http://www.malwarebytes.org/products...bytes_free/(do again)
and
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/down...eaner/download from bleeping computer
With limited success. The first (superanti) noticed a few ad tracking cookies which were quarantined/removed without issue. The other 2 programs brought up nothing doing full scans (not quick scans).
Your link to Kaspersky confuses me (here Free Malware Removal Tools) as I can only see 1 rootkit (PMaxKiller arrowdownload [ZIP, 101 KB],[EXE, 117 KB] 1.0.1 Rootkit.Win32.PMax) but this says Win32 and I am running 64bit. Does that matter or should I just use the 32 version? Is there another rootkit on this site I am missing?
I am very wary of hacking the hardware to try the PSU jump start as you linked. The computer is on right now so obviously the PSU does turn on. What would doing the jump start prove other than that the PSU powers up?
The other PSU link (PSU - How to Test) is in a VIP section which I don't have access to whether logged in or not so I don't know what is on this page, sorry.
I appear to have the current version of AMD Cool'n'Quiet installed and working. I rebooted to the bios settings and it is enabled.
Arc, I don't know if my previous dump files will help (here https://www.sevenforums.com/attachmen...iles080613.zip and here https://www.sevenforums.com/attachmen...idumpfiles.zip and here https://www.sevenforums.com/attachmen...amestcoop4.zip and most recently here https://www.sevenforums.com/attachmen...op08202013.zip).
I've also attached a new as of right now SFDiagnostics zip file.
Thanks again everyone!

This has got me thinking. The motherboard is an ASUS M4A77TD Pro (here M4A77TD PRO - Motherboards - ASUS) and the original graphics card it came with is a Gigabyte GV-R435OC-512I (here GIGABYTE - Graphics Card - ATI - PCI Express Solution - Radeon HD 4000 series - GV-R435OC-512I). I installed (about 8 months ago) a new graphics card the Nvidia GTX GeForce 550 Ti (official site here GeForce GTX 550 Ti | GeForce).
Now I have since reformatted the SSD about 3 times and reinstalled Windows 7 so there shouldn't be any lingering AMD (old graphics card) driver or other software still on my system. Is that right or will drivers persist over a format and reinstall of the OS?
I didn't have any problems for 6-7 months using the new Nvidia graphics card until about a month ago now.
The system seems stable while in use but the main problems now are getting it to turn on at all or return from sleep mode...
Mate I am also framing the same idea that YoYo suggested, but as a last try ... do two things.
For an undetermined stop 0xA, let us concentrate on the virus scanner at first, and next the other drivers.
Uninstall Avast using Avast Uninstall Utility. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.
Download, install and update those, and then run full system scans with both of them, one by one (Just for safety reason; no expecting any virus to be caught).
And after that, enable Driver Verifier to monitor the drivers.
Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable
Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.
InformationWhy Driver Verifier:
It puts a stress on the drivers, ans so it makes the unstable drivers crash. Hopefully the driver that crashes is recorded in the memory dump.
How Can we know that DV is enabled:
It will make the system bit of slow, laggy.
WarningBefore enabling DV, make it sure that you have earlier System restore points made in your computer. You can check it easily by using CCleaner looking at Tools > System Restore.
If there is no points, make a System Restore Point manually before enabling DV.
Let us know the results, with the subsequent crash dumps, if any.Tip
- If you fail to get on the Desktop because of DV, Boot into Advanced Boot Options > Safe mode. Disable DV there. Now boot normally again, and try following the instruction of enabling DV again.
- If you cannot boot in Safe mode too, do a System Restore to a point you made earlier.

Ok ICit2lol I downloaded and ran TDSSKiller and it didn't find any issues.
My luck today has been pretty good; no blue screens. I am currently running an old graphics driver (version 311.06) which was updated by windows updates after my last format and reinstall of Win7.
When I previously attempted to update to the newer version of this driver here Drivers | GeForce (I tried both 314.22 and 320.49) I was getting regular blue screens.
I am wary to update to the newer drivers (326.80 is in Beta and was just released today).
I am going to give it a couple days on the older driver. I will let you all know if I still am having issues.
