Hello,
i'm not sure what is going on with my pc latley. i have been getting bsod every time i play wow (0x000000124) and now i am having a very strange issue.

once the pc boots up it is ocasionaly locking up. say 1-6 secs then goes good for about 30secs then locks up again. this repeats.

i have tried everything i can think of, updating drivers, disk cleanup, scanned for spyware and viruses, ram test and defraged.

anyone have a idea as to what the issue may be? need help before i format. ty

in addition, not sure if it is related or not but sometimes when i go to shutdown the pc does nothing, just freezes on desktop.
