Hi
I recently purchased a new PC and installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 on the system, and for the first few days the PC worked fine. However recently the PC started freezing up at random intervals, and whenever I start the PC the monitor, keyboard and mouse remain unresponsive, while the rest of the system seems to start up. The system also shuts itself down automatically whenever I start it up, only to start itself up again after a few seconds. Please note that this last error only occurs when I overclock the PC, however this should not be a problem as my CPU is 'supposed' to be able to overclock. Any help anyone can give me would greatly be appreciated as I am missing out on some serious gaming time
