So I recently built a brand new gaming computer with the assistance of a friend of mine. I am currently using his old parts since he caught the upgrade bug. The parts I got worked perfectly fine. He knows a considerable amount about computers, but I on the other hand am a complete rookie.
Now to get to the problem. I don't have much installed onto my SSD except for a few programs like Symantec endpoint protection, google chrome, league of legends and some wallpapers. Everything was fine until a little over a month ago my computer blue screen and memory dumped. I changed my SATA port to a different socket and the problem went away. Now my new problem is that I can't get windows updates (As in the search for the updates always fails), League files are corrupt and nothing I have done seems to work, google chrome crashes constantly. I have tried re-installing all of my current programs and the problem still remains. I checked my reliability history and it shows windows has failed. I don't know what to do since I have invested a large proportion of my money into this computer. I also don't have a windows backup.
Is there a way to pinpoint what exactly is causing the problem? (Keep in mind I don't know a whole lot about computers)
Current Specs:
CPU: intel i7 3770k
GPU: Gtx 570
Motherboard: ASUS z77 Sabertooth

PSU: Corsair HX 750
RAM: Corsair XMS3 16gb DDR3 @ 1333
OS: windows 7 home premium 64 bit
SSD: samsung 840 pro 128 gb
