Hello,
I bought a new PC and already having lots of issues. After installing Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with SP1, I installed Motherboard drivers and could no longer open My Computer > Properties. I fixed that using SFC in cmd which found some corrupted Windows files. I also installed GPU drivers.

Upon trying to run Windows Experience Index, a blue screen appeared. It happened again on the following attempt. My PC also randomly reset once and there was a BSOD while simply browsing.

My configuration:
FX 6300
SPIRE KEPLER REV 2.0
AS ROCK 970 PRO3 R2.0
TRANSCEND 4GB + 2GB 1600 MHZ (6GB)
TOSHIBA 3,5 500 GB SATA 3
SAPPHIRE R7 260X 1GB BOOST
LG GH24NS95 SATA
XFX 450W 80+ BRONZE
MS LOGIC A32 ATX


Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I've been away from my PC for last 2 hours.

Anyway, I'll try those tomorrow, as it's getting late here, and see what happens.

I've now tried various versions of Windows 7 as well as not installing any drivers and my PC still freezes, resets or blue screens. I think it might be a faulty CPU.

EDIT: This is a completely new PC, that arrived today, so I don't think it could be spyware / malware.

Just a quick note regarding my name; it's Sir George, I haven't made it to St (Saint) quite yet.:D In regards to the OP's question, it was in the General Question section when I responded, so it appears it has either been moved or deleted from the initial forum.
