PC crashing randomly

Right, I think I've tested just about everything else. It's the motherboard. Chaintech released a batch of faulty 7NJL6 nForce2 motherboards apparently, here's a thread I discovered: http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/42411/?o=0 It seems Chaintech even "admit" to it. Right now I'm...

PC crashing randomly

Hi. I purchased a new power supply and the problem still persists. I only have one stick 512MB DDR SDRAM. I don't know, guess I'll have to fork out for a new CPU with a replaced motherboard. I'm disappointed in nvidia nForce.

Thanks for the help. I suppose they gave me a faulty motherboard. It's a custom made PC so there's not really any one vendor I can send it to, I'll try and replace the motherboard.

PC crashing randomly

I left the PC running until a few minutes ago without issue in safe mode, of course it could have not been long enough. I've switched out the graphica card now and I'll post back here if it happens again. I should probably leave it running in safe mode for a while if it does crash with this...

PC crashing randomly

Hmm, I can switch the 9600 pro for an old Geforce 3 I have here.. but I can only do it tomorrow. So I'll reboot into safe mode and leave it running, see if it locks-up after a good few hours. It's late here so I need some rest (4am). As for when the BSODs started, it was as soon as I had...

PC crashing randomly

I'll try and make this as detailed as possible. System specs will be at the bottom of the post. A month or two ago my PC started to lock up, the HDD would make clicking noises every couple of days and so I replaced the HDD with a new one because windows would refuse to boot sometimes (corrupt...
