computer info:

Gigabyte EX58-U3DR
Sapphire Radeon HD 4890 (latest catalyst installed)
i7 920
OCZ DDR2-133 6gb
750W PSU

Ever since I bough this computer (built it myself according to the midperformance series article on anandtech last year around August i think), it has many unknown problems.

At first, right after I built the computer, I installed 64bit Vista and all the CD that came with each individual component, then problems such as unable to wake up from hibernation or freezes at the memory loading screen or just random crash after windows start began to surface. I formatted everything and reinstalled vista but did not install the CD that came with the parts and I downloaded everything off of official sites of those parts, still happened. Now I formatted and installed 7 64bit and I only installed catalyst and media player classic, I can't wake up from hibernation (just freezes) and it would just crash out of nowhere. After the crash I restart the computer and it won't crash again...

I used bazooka scanner and I found systemdir.explorer and systemdir.regedit

I followed the instruction and I cannot find the registry and the files mentioned in the cleanup procedures.

Could someone please help because this is getting way too annoying. I spent 1.8k on this computer back then and I have to format and reinstall every 6 weeks?

Please let me know any info that might be helpful for you to diagnose my problems.

Thank you very much.
 
It could be a couple of things, hard to diagnose without running stresstesting programs, but I would look at the BIOS, and make sure the settings are right, things like voltages and temperatures. Then move on to memory (use memtest or whatever is the going program atm). Then after that look at the hard-drive, let it do a chkdsk, see if it finds errors, and then if possible, try a different drive.
 
everything is in factory default setting. could the factory setting of different parts actually causes problems to each other without ever been manually changed to the wrong setting? i've done chkdsk before and no errors were found.
 
you need to make sure the frequency, timings, and voltage of your ram is set correctly. and also try running memtest.
 
download and install CPUZ. Click on the SPD tab and look at the part number. Then search google or newegg or something using that part number to find the timings and what not. Go into your BIOS and set them accordingly.
