Windows Crashing, even after fresh install

[codersanchez]

Hey Guys,

So recently my computer has been crashing. Basically what happens is an application will suddenly stop responding when I'm using it, and eventually the computer will get to the windows 8 BSoD, with an error message of "critical process died".

So I tried reinstalling windows. About 5 minutes in my new installation, it did it again. So obviously im thinking it's a hardware issue.

However, I have ran memtest for 8 hours with 0 errors. (I did standard config on that, wasn't sure if I should tweak anything)

I thought it was my SSD so I've downloaded a few health checking applications and they all seem to think it's healthy, these could be wrong though I imagine?

What else could it be?

My Specs:

AMD Phenom II X4 965
Mushkin Enhanced Callisto Deluxe SSD - 40GB (Boot drive)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 16GB (4x4GB)
ASUS M4A88T-V EVO/USB3 AM3 AMD 880G

Might be too much information, but I'm getting frustrated at this point.

Thanks!

I suggest you to run a check disk, you know due to these unstable things your computer crashed too many times, so it would have damaged your drives. Start the command prompt in admin mode, use this command to run check disk. chkdsk /f /r
Include the spaces

This should help you to fix the errors on your HD

Didn't find any errors and windows is no longer warning me, so not sure what that was about.

My computer has ran without crashing for almost 24 hours now. Before even 3 hours was stretching it so I'm very hopeful the issue is fixed.

Thanks everybody for your help.
