Hey everyone,

I did my first build a while ago but kept getting the Blue Screen of Death. I got a tech guy in to look at how I built it, do mem tests and hard drive tests and he said that the motherboard must be faulty. I then sent the motherboard back and they gave me a replacement.

I now have put it back together and am STILL getting BSOD's or my screen just freezes. It can run for quite a while without crashing if I am just using facebook or just cruising the web but when I start using skype or play games or have a few different programs open it is more likely to crash.

At this point in time I think it could be a compatibility problem with some hardware I'm using otherwise I am just over the crashing and really need any help I can get!! Thanks

Here are my computers specs

had same thing happen when i got a new CPU, had to update bios for mobo to reconize CPU, but they can also fix certain issues with hardware too.
