Run ram diagnostics. Your DVD drive may be defective.

Thank you. Thought I did everything but left out one thing. I forgot to check the memory. It was bad.

put old memory back in and took the cmos battery out. now everything is fine. The Hard part was finding the memtest in dos iso form for cd. Here is the link.
