Hello everyone,
First off, huge thanks for the help here... i'm completely stumped. Ive tried what I would believe to be everything. Essentially im looking for an answer, even if its an answer that it cannot be fixed or its a hardware problem. At least at that point I can just replace the part.. or something.

OS - Windows 7 Ultimate
- 64 Bit
- The system was originally built about 2ish years ago, Vista 64 bit was installed at that point
- OEM Vista, Currently retail windows 7 ultimate
- What is the age of system (hardware)? - 2.5ish years.
- What is the age of OS installation - In this case, almost 2 days.

When I originally built the system, it was running vista and everything was fine. I started to get some BSOD's under BCCode 50, which from some research appeared to be some sort of a memory problem. Prior to this the system was solid for nearly the 2 years. Once the memory thing happened, I jumped to just a simply reformat as I had not done so for a long time. I decided to do the upgrade to Windows 7. The problem persisted, I did a memtest and my computer BSOD'd. Huge red flag so I started to swap out sticks and continue to trouble shoot. I discovered a faulty ram stick, I then replaced it. Everything was good to go for about 6-7 months. Then I started to get a wide variety of BSOD's.
BCCode 50, 3B, 5E etc. I then jumped to doing a memtest, ran it for like 12 hours.. no errors nothing. I then tested my video cards doing a stress test, benchmark and stability with no trouble. I am currently running 2 Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 512 meg in SLI. I tested them individually and in SLI with no trouble. I continued to troubleshoot with no luck. I tried everything I could think of. including wiping drivers, reinstalling for both my motherboard drivers and my video drivers. I tried rolling them back and it didnt work etc.
At this point, any game I play will cause a BSOD in roughly 20 minutes or less. So I reformatted completely. I did a complete wipe and install of a fresh Windows 7 yesterday. everything was all fine and dandy until the BSODS came back. The catch is now i'm getting BCCode 50's, C2's and 3B's. Ive tried updating my BIOS, drivers all over again and scrambling all over these forums to catch any idea I can try. Not to mention when I installed Windows 7 as a fresh install I got the notorious "dropped network connect" bug for the first 6 hours until i was able to eventually solve that through research etc.
I am now at my last resort, posting this up to see if any of you Guru's out there can take the challenge and tell me what I need to do next on this beast. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Let me know if I have not included all the appropriate information.
I know its in the files attached but here are my specs:
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6400+ 3.21GHz
- 4 GIG RAM
- Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB x2 SLI
- Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe Nforce 570 Chipset
- WD 250 SATA x2 (not in raid)
- 750W Cool Master Power Supply
- Rippen
