Blue Screen Of Death... Did the comp ever run right, or did it start farting at first boot up after windows install, or what? More info please.

What are the case\CPU temps?

Usually you get some error code with a BSOD.
Anything in the event viewer?

Try with one stick then the other in each slot.

Disconnect everything but the video, RAM, CPU and HDD and see if it BSODs on you.

DO NOT try to use an installation of Windows from a previous motherboard. You must reinstall.

Did you follow the OS, Update, DX9, Chipset, driver installation order?

Underclock the memory?
