Problem:

The computer was giving me a blue screen at random time. After I try every way to fix it, i got tired and I reformat the HD and Installed the OS from scratch. I got all the available update for my system and VGA and the computer work find for a couple of week.

No, the computer restart at random time, no blue screen or NOTHING. After the system boot, windows give me several error reports, everytime something different. It said, system need updates, i look for the updates and is up to date. Then is said is hardware or device. The it said is the antivirus, then it said is the system memory, that i need to do a memory diagnostic. I have done everything windows error report have suggested and every time the same problem. Windows just restart with no reason.

I have no idea what else to do. I run the memory diagnostic, no error found. Change the Antivirus from Symantec endpoint protection, to symantec antivirus. Problem still there. System and Video card update. No different.

Pls Help me before a get a bat and start smashing this thing! : )

The restart of the computer is at random times, doesn't matter if I'm using it or if is on idle! Is not a heat issue ether, I had a new power supply and a new cpu fan with Thermal compound.What memory diagnostics you have used?

It seems like you have tried all possible solution with the problem...Have you tried using a separate graphics card? Try installing a separate graphics and install the CORRECT driver, see if it works........

Post back with the results........

Good luck! What type and speed is your RAM?

SeanHi guys, thank you for your reply;

For the memory diagnostic test i used the one Microsoft send me in the LINK, I don't remember the name. What i KNOW is that you have to burn it on a CD and boost up you computer with it.

And no i haven't try another video card. Do you think that could be the problem?
Because you should see this thing, everytime it restart, is a different report sometime 3 or 5 different error reports.
