I have searched the forums and I found one similar result to the conditions I am experiencing.
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/57020-63-computer-crashes-randomly-safe-mode
It seems like he was having hardware issues and this is my thought as well after trying some things. I didnt want to try the solution to the linked thread because I do not have a non-USB mouse or keyboard and it stated that you would need one.
Symptoms:
■ crashing at seemingly random intervals. These crashes are instantaneous, have no BSOD and are anywhere from 20 mins to 3 hours apart.
■ safe mode (even with no networking) still suffers from crashing under the same "conditions".
■ crashes happen even at the login screen before anything is touched after a reboot.
■ occasional freezes which require a reboot.
Things I have done:
■ Restoring to a point before the crashes started (no effect).
■ checking wires and hardware to make sure everything is seated properly (no effect).
■ checking event viewer for errors. There were some errors but even after they were fixed there was no effect on the overall crashes.
■ sfc /scannow (while not in safe mode if that matters). This returned nothing
■ checked all components for overheating. My monitoring program doesnt show anything overheating and these crashes can happen while nothing is running. While nothing is running my computer sits at just over 30C and goes up to about 38C when under mild load. Under a heavy load it tops off at 55C usually. I also opened the case and put my hand near everything (to verify the sensors werent way off) which was all barely above room temperature to my hand.
There seems to be no effect to the system besides the crashing, the freezes are about 1 to every 15 crashes probably. All hardware was bought at the same time and is still quite new (several months old). I am running Windows 7 64 bit Professional.
I am not sure what else to do or check but I am thinking it is hardware because it crashes in safe mode and after a restore.
