New build - Random / Frequent lockups

Hello all again! Unfortunately, for me lol, I am back. My last post was about my mobo not using the RAM in slot 3&4, which was found to be a defective motherboard.

Anyways, this time it is another problem. I am getting random, but somewhat frequent lockups with my build. The Bios is up to date along with all the new drivers. My build:

Mobo: Gigabyte z68xp-ud3 (NEW)
CPU: i7 2600k (NEW)
RAM: 2x4GB G.SKill && 2x2GB G.Skill (Dual Channeled correctly)
GPU: Geforce GTX 460
PSU: Black Widow 850w
Storage: 60GB SSD
Display: Running Dual monitor (No problems with old mobo / setup)

-I have double / triple checked the connections
-Not an overheating issue


-The one thing I can think of that might do something is maybe old drivers from my old motherboard are conflicting with my new motherboard??? I don't know if that is possible, but it is my only lead atm lol.

-I would love to not have to do a fresh install since I am without a SATA DVD drive atm.


Thanks for all the help in advance!

Wait, you're saying you're using drivers from another motherboard for motherboard that is wasn't supposed to??

yeah, you're probably right, if you were using an old HDD, then the other drivers might conflict with the new motherboard

Do you just have the SSD? If so, it might be the SSD. I read a lot of reviews saying that some SSDs fail a lot. If you have another HDD try subsituting that for the SSD instead and see how it runs

matt, what are the symptoms of the problem. Cause I think it might be the SSD in lepinat0r's computer. I have read a lot of reviews saying the SSD failed and died.

maybe it's the video card? Do you have all the latest drivers?

ok
