My computer crashes ever hour. I can only use it for about an hour then it freezes up or gives me the blue screen with a message about a cache dump. I reformatted my Hard drive. Installed Vista. It tried it without installing service pack 1. Tried it after installing service pack 1 and also tried it after installing service pack 2. It seems pretty systematic. It will crash near the 1 hour mark. I'm not claiming it has anything to do with Vista. Just letting you know what I have tried. I also removed one of my rams and also tried shifting them around in other slots. I disabled my extra hard drive and removed my video card. Now using onboard video and still it will crash. I am pretty much out of ideas and I hope this community can help me. Here are my specs:

Any help would be appreciated. I am totally out of ideas as to what to do and I really don't want to waste anymore money building a new computer. Thank you for reading and for your help in this matter. Have a wonderful day!

Page_fault_in_non_paged_area, with a stop of 0x50 means faulty RAM. It is odd, that it happens to 'regularly', but that's what it means. Windows is trying to access data, that it has stored in memory, but is unable to because the information is not there anymore.

Somthing simple to try, where the issue occurs at a regular rate, try checking scheduled tasks. You've formatted , so the OS is likely not the problem. Also try safe mode with networking, display will be bad, but everything else should work, if the problem re-occurs then we are likely dealing with a hardware issue of some sort, if it doesn't then it's fixable.

You could also turn off the automatic restart function (google on how to do this), Then when the BSOD pops up, it'll stay on screen, you might get something helpful info like "bad_pool_header" or stop codes like this: 0x0000007b. These can be looked up to find out what's wrong.

I disabled the automatic restart function but for some reason the blue screen isn't popping up anymore. It still crashes every hour like clockwork. It seems to be pretty exact too. This is why I wonder if it has something to do with software. Restarting the computer won't reset the crash counter. It has to be a shutdown. Also, it crashes in safe mode in the same way. Is there a log report that the computer generates when it crashes?

Edit I found some minidump files, not sure if this will help.
