    Not a lot of meat in your post and regrettably we don't have a crystal ball :)

    Post some details from the blue screens and maybe someone can help you.

    I would suspect memory or hard drive issues.

    I would start by checking your hard drive with the manufacturer's disk diagnostic software - DOS version .....

    Disk Diagnostic Software ....

    ExcelStore

    Hitachi/IBM

    Samsung

    Seagate, Maxtor, Quantum

    Western Digital

    Then your memory .....
    The only satisfactory way of testing RAM is to test the installed RAM in various configurations. If you have a single module swap it around the slots. If you have a pair of modules run each one singly, swapping between slots; then run them in pairs swapping between pairs of slots. If you have 2 sets of matched modules do not get them mixed up.

    You will need to look on the Newegg site for details re. returning faulty goods - we do not have Newegg over here in the UK so I have never dealt with them.

    Please mark this thread as 'Resolved', see .....
