Solve : new to computer building...?

Answer»

hey guys back in February I built my first system. since then I been having a lot of problems that I cant seem to fix. well first there was this crazy freeze where the screen would go to a solid color and then RESTART. I replaced the graphics card and now it just freezes. I have also been getting these blue screens: memory management and page_fault_in_nopaged_area. I have tried goggling both of these errors and and haven't found a solution. the really weird thing is that when I replaced the graphics card about 2 weeks ago I didn't have any of the errors or freezes I would just put it to sleep every night, but 1 night I shut it down and the next day I starting having all these problems again. I really do not know what to do, I'm at wits end and I'm starting to put more money into this machine then I would have liked. here is a list of all the components that are currently in my machine:

PS: I'm really sorry that I posted all the links but thats all of them, I also have MANY MANY scanners installed and no THREATS have ever been detected, plus over the 6 months that I have been having these problems I have reformatted a BUNCH of times and even bought a brand new OS. I'm currently running Win7 Ultimate 64bit. any advice would be greatly APPRECIATED thanks.Try pulling out that A-DATA memory module and see how it runs.okay so I removed that memory stick and it seems to be running fine. how did you know to remove that one if you dont mind me asking. but I'm not sure it seem every time I make changes to the hardware it runs fine for a couple of weeks then starts having issues againThe only possible problem component was the memory. Memory is like batteries you're recommended to have all the same brand. Although that doesn't mean you can't work around it, you just have to find matches. The memory you bought had a different latency and voltage to the others, then again it can be down to pot luck as to which brands are compatible. The manufacturers list compatible memory but it's not law, some memory may work if not listed.

Try Crucial.com to find a compatible match. Quote

You should only have ONE antivirus and ONE firewall installed at the same time - Running more than one of each is likely to cause problems ranging from conflicts to crashes and lock ups.

What Antivirus and firewall programs do you currently have installed?i have avast, and windows firewall. i also have maleware bytes, superanit-spyware, and hijack this. also the memory thing makes sence i had no idea the memory had differnt latency and voltage. i didnt even know to look Your antivirus should be okay as long as you only have one AV and one FW running at a time.okay... after returning from short vacation I turned my computer on and I got some completely new problems 1st I got the blue screen Bad_pool_header. after the machine restarted it got this error: the top said " MCI command handling window: taskhost.exe application error." then the error said "the instruction of 0xfe4b231c referred memory at 0xffffffff could not be read." after I hit ok the machine gave me another blue screen this one I didn't have time to write the name down. but I looked the list you have on here on site and it wasn't any of those. I have it safe mode right now seeing if it will stop all the blue screen because they happen pretty soon after start up, like I didn't even have time to finish the first sentence. I'm REPLACING the memory on Tuesday when I get more money. so I would like to know if this could be anything elseno one has clue what wrong with my computer?ok i used a program called bluesceen view and it logs all the blue sceens and show which driver caused them and it says 6/7 of the crashes were cause by ntoskrnl.exe. i dont know what this means in any form just trying to shed some light on my problem.
