Ok, the last known good configuration still does not work.

I found this section off of a website that shows the problem that I likely have.
Since my "STOP" blue screen error is the code 0x00000050. The website explains everything:

Code:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=894278&sd=RMVP

But... its saying that a spyware had penetrated my system and had planted a "malicious" .sys file in my WINDOWS directory. The website gives 3 methods in finding this corrupted file that is messing with my memory, but there is just one problem. The file is randomly named. So I have to find this "randomly" named file and rename it to "malware.old" and restart the computer. This supposedly will fix my problem.
So I enter my WINDOWS directory and find the hundreds of .sys files. Oh goody. And of course they are all named goofy "random" abbreviates that relate to its program it supports. But I did stumble upon 1 file that was named "fastfat.sys" I'm not sure if this is an actual system file, but it seemed rather suspicious to me because it is the only file that had actual full words. So I renamed it to malware.old and restarted the computer. Still, the same problem. I then went back into the directory and removed the malware.sys file and put it on the desktop just incase I'll need it. Still, the same problem. I'm getting very irritated by this. I'm about to go out and buy a new mobo and processor but I don't want to do this if it is something linked to a file on my hard drive. I'm not sure what there is left to do

Dont know if this is still a prob but i had the same prob and it was a heat problem. The CPU was getting too hot and the protection system was causing it to restart. May not be the case here though
