Just finished a fresh windows 7 pro x64 install, updated all my drivers and the standard install stuff.
However i seem to be getting both system freezes (ie pc just freezes won't accept any input nor and has to be force powered off) and a variety of different BSOD errors seemingly at random.
What I've done so far:
1. Installed all windows updates and drivers.
2. updated bios.
3. Memory Test with memtest86+ (came up fine)
4. SMART Test of all hdd's
5. Heat Monitoring of Cpu and gpu (both within norms)
6. Checking of all cables to make sure they are properly connected
Starting to suspect its a motherboard problem but would like to be a 100% sure before i drop cash on it.
Anyone got any other possibilities?
