a few guesses: I would try to isolate a possible bad memory stick,
also make sure case is adequately cooled.
you did not mention the size of your power supply.

I have an Athalon 64 Processor 3200+ with 1028 MB of RAM and a MX440 128 Mb Video Card. Last month, my computer would jsut freeze and I couldn't use control alt delete or anything and I would have to turn off my computer. This happend so many times that I had to start completely fresh again re-installing Windows XP and all the other basic stuff. For about a month everything was ok until last week when it started to happen again. I checked the error log under Help and Support and everytime the computer would freeze, it would say that MXRSMB or something close to that was the problem. It was saying that my computer was being forced to stop or was being elected to freeze. Everytime it froze a new of those error messeges would pop up. I re-installed windows again and within hours the same thing happend. Except this time the error was something like this: Monday, April 26, 2004 Cdrom The device, \Device\CdRom0, has a bad block. Every few hours the comp just freezes, escpecially if i am playing a game, listening to music or just leaving it on the desktop for 10 minutes. My computer just freezes and my dad and i have done everything possible: install updtaes, patches new drivers, etc, etc but nothing works anymore. The old error logs that said MXRSMB was freezing it are now gone so i cant show you those. My dad wont get any help right no because he thinks he can do it himslef even though he really cant. So in a nutshell, my computer just freezes without warning or error messege and when i do practilly anything. The error log said MXRSMB or something like that was the problem and now its the cd rom or something. To all you computer wizards out there, I need your help.
