Lately whilst I install, play a game or even it just appears randomly !!

I have found that it normally says:

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

or

PAGE_AREA_IN_A_NON PAGED_AREA

Something towards the lines of that. I just need to know how I can fix it ! Its killing me

Upload the minidump files and we might be able to help track down the issue.

That sounds like a RAM issue in my view. First thing I would do, is if you are Overlocking at all, reset back to the defaults and see if it still happens. If not then that is the issue. Also run Memtest86 on the RAM .. you only need 1 flaky ram module to get all kinds of problems.
That can also be caused by a video card that needs more on board video RAM for the current games.

Well, I don't know where to upload files (please tell me where?)

And second off all. I just recently got a new motherboard and processor, and even since before my upgrade I've been having problems but now its much more frequently !

I personally I think its my RAM because I have 2gb (2x 1gb 800mhz) and its Kingmax RAM

Sounds like ram is the culprit if you had the same problems before the new motherboard and cpu. Run Memtest overnight on your ram to see if it passes.

Also what brand/wattage of power supply do you have?
