hi
i just bought a used pc . its a I5 750 with a motherboard p7p55d deluxe . a G.skill ripjaws 4gb (2gb + 2gb) . with a hd 7870
every time i try to install wiindows . it installs normally , i even play some games with it . i turn it off and on back and it still works
but when i i turn it off more that an hour or 2 and turn it back on windows crashes and try de restore or repair . the repair goes loop and i have to reinstall windows again . firrst i taugh it was the hard drive , i changed it , same problem . then i taugh may be it was the rams so i tried to do a memtest . that's the results i have so far (2hours )

That seems most likely, but it can be tricky to separate cpu, ram, and motherboard issues. Since you say you have 2 sticks, try the memtest with only one of them in the first slot, then the other. If only one of them fails, then you can be fairly sure that the ram is indeed what failed. If they both fail at exactly the same address, it's probably not the ram.
