So I check for Bios updates and there were like 6 updates over 10 months. Installed the latest one's and so far no crashes and I'm getting better fps. --- http://i.imgur.com/QzUHUGL.gif http://i.imgur.com/IJPGRfT.jpg WORK IT!

I had the same issue back in 2008 with an old Dell, it would boot with the upgraded CPU but it wouldn't recognise the correct clock speed and I had issues with the PC hanging at random times. After updating the BIOS I never experienced those issues again. --- Well he was Thailand based, she was an airforce wife.

But I feel like my computer was fine for a while before it started having issue. --- http://i.imgur.com/QzUHUGL.gif http://i.imgur.com/IJPGRfT.jpg WORK IT!

Either way glad you got it fixed, sometimes trying to diagnose crashes turns into a Pandora's box of potential issues. --- Well he was Thailand based, she was an airforce wife.
