Hey there fellow gamespotters. I'm currently having a problem with my PC and can't really find a plausible cause for it , and I think I've tried everything...

It all began 2 months ago if I recall well. I was using the PC normally. I didn't have viruses of any kind and suddenly it froze. The thing was that after freezing , the windows wouldn't boot up again only if I let it lay for a day or something like that.The same thing happens since then , and I want to add that I've changed my HDD, motherboard and power source. Some people said that it was because of the games installed on my hard drive ... but I don't really think that anyone has 2 games on a 500 GB HDD... and I mean if it would be because of the games , it would be normal to restart finely right?

Later on I found out this ... each time it blocks , if I remove the RAM memory and place it back , the PC starts and works for some time before it freezes again and the chain starts over. I also changed the RAM memory once... and it still does that , I'm pretty much in despair.. I've been struggling to get it work for like over 2 months now but it simply won't... I still need it because I plan on buying a new one only next summer or so...

I really need some help with this...

It's logical. You have tried a new mobo, PSU and and HD. So that leaves CPU, Graphics card and PCI cards.....and fans.....

Make sure all your fans are spinning. You have used thermal paste when putting in the CPU....?

Take out any additional PCI card like sound, network. Yuo say you have tried different ram. as it really sounds like a ram problem.

You have to replace each component and eliminate the bad one..

The fans are spinning perfectly and the temperatures are normal . As I said , some people said that it could be the videogames that are causing this , but a videogame doesn't jam it like that , right? I guess I'll buy a new RAM memory..... I mainly think that has to be the problem myself as far as when I remove it the PC unblocks .... Thanks for the help man... I'm waiting for other answers...

You could go to the firm you bought the PC or to the one you got your motherboard from and tell them that it doesn't work.Go the the place you got the motherboard and tell them that because of the motherboard the PC doesn't work.They'll tell you that it's not because of the motherboard but they'll tell you what the problem is and than you can fix it on your own;)

I've tried this somewhere around 4 times... and they kept telling me it was games like Warcraft 3 and WoW that were doing this to my PC so there's no actual way I'ma do that ... I'd rather just get a new one.. if I had the money...

Run memtest86.

On a side note you'll need to list more details on your computer.
