system unstable / crashing

About a month or more ago iwas having these same problems, system being unstable and randomly restarting. Windows error reporting blamed a device driver, and we narrowed it down to a new Hard drive that i had installed. Well i took that HD out and everything was fine until today, all the sudden its doing the restarts and crashes again, and windows error reporting is once again blaming a bad device driver.

Yet i have not installed any new hardware...the only hardware I have changed since the last problem was when i took out the HD that was causing the issues. I also have not installed any new programs, or really changed much of anything.

Could be the RAM. Do you have 2 sticks? Try testing each stick individually with docmem.
