Computer randomly blue screens

Okay I have it done but I won't really be able to test it out until this weekend. Pharmacy Trainee stuff has me too busy/tired to do anything but check my e-mail and sleep when I get home. Sorry.

No worries. I understand being busy.

Progress with troubleshooting at whatever pace fits your lifestyle/needs. We're in no hurry.

Okay well I'm back and (hopefully) things will stay settled down. I tried it just not and the picture was the result.

Is F4 the only crash you get anymore?

If so, I suspect it is either the hard drive or the motherboard that is faulty at this time. I wish we could determine which is the culprit... Can you borrow a hard drive from a friend, or buy one from a store that will allow you to return it for a full refund if it ends up not being the problem?

I believe it is. I can't borrow a HDD and no stores around where I live sell them sadly only way would be to order it online :/ I can look around and see if someone has a old, but functional HDD but I doubt I would find one around here.

Alrighty I made arrangements with a friend in Texas, I'll (hopefully) get his extra next week. I'll keep ya' posted.

Okay had a ton of issues actually getting the HDD. I'm sorry it took so darn long. I just tried running Team Fortress 2 to see if it worked and after about 10 minutes if began to lock up and then the computer crashed.
