Hey guys, I just built a new PC, the specs are:

ASUS P5WD2 Premium Motherboard
Intel Pentium 4 3.2 Ghz 800FSB
2Gb DDR2 PC533 RAM
GeCube Radeon X700 256Mb (PCI Express)


After building it, it ran fine, windows XP install was normal. I imediatly installed Service pack 1 and 2 and all drivers. Worked fine for a week or two and ran Doom 3 with no lag on full graphics quality.

I have been playing Star Wars: KOTOR 2 on it, also with no problems. Until the game crashed and exited to desktop. I restarted the game and had horrible graphical glitches, and after about 5 seconds it crashed, this time restarting the PC.
Ever since then, I cannot turn the PC on without a blue screen 3 seconds after booting to windows desktop. They range from "page fault in nonpaged area" to "irq not less or equal" errors.

I am SO PISSED OFF, so please, ANYONE help me!

Sounds like hardware failure.

I'd start by checking out the RAM

If you have some spare RAM, you could swap that out, I would remove any unnecessary things like a sound card or USB card you might have. If you have onboard video, take out the vid card to and fall back on that. Try to figure out which part of the system is giving you problems.

Thanx, Ill try that memtest thing. It seems to work fine after I set the system to manage the pagefile, but its worth checking.
