Thought i'd get a headstart and uninstall the two Samsung drives and just run my OCZ drive alone. So I reformated and installed everything again hoping that this was the problem. However it doesen't seem to have done anything. As even with this drive it is Bluescreening. However at this point, it's not making any minidumps so I can't post them at the moment.

BSOD by nvidia driver?

Hi,
Have you tried connection wise installing your hard disks and such to a different controller if available, or if there is only one controller, a different SATA slot? Also, did you update the OCZ (assuming ssd) to its latest firmware?

Alright well I bit the bullet and bought another CPU, this time I went with the slightly cheaper 4670K. Reformatted and such anddd..... still no luck. Still getting bluescreens after another motherboard and a completely different CPU.
I have not tried connecting them to a different controller, but ill try. And currently I am not using the OCZ SSD to eliminate problems.
However I am not getting any DRIVER_SQL BSOD's, so far the two I have had were MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and PFN_LIST_CORRUPT , wich I assume refers to RAM.
So I will try just continuesly swapping out the ram and see if it's any better. On the bright side, the system seems to be overall more stable, and only seems to BlueScreen when trying to update something.
Unfortunetly the system isin't making any dumps and ill have to go and follow one of those guides to get it to make them again.
It's weird too, cause it says dumping memory to disk during the bluescreen, but I get nothing on here.
Also the problem where the time was reseting every hour seems to have stoped after installing the new motherboard.
I must have gotten the most unlucky batch of parts in the world, to get a defective Motherboard, CPU and now possibly RAM.

Okay, let's try a Memtest just to rule out memory (even if you've done it before, let's be sure at this point):
Memtest86+:
No less than ~8 passes.
Try a different controller if your motherboard has one. If not, try a different slot.
Upload the new dumps only here, please. I want to see if there's any info I can gather from the *1A dumps.

Memtest86+:
Download Memtest86+ here:
[url]http://www.memtest.org/[/URL]
Which should I download?
You can either download the pre-compiled ISO that you would burn to a CD and then boot from the CD, or you can download the auto-installer for the USB key. What this will do is format your USB drive, make it a bootable device, and then install the necessary files. Both do the same job, it's just up to you which you choose, or which you have available (whether it's CD or USB).
How Memtest works:
Memtest86 writes a series of test patterns to most memory addresses, reads back the data written, and compares it for errors.
The default pass does 9 different tests, varying in access patterns and test data. A tenth test, bit fade, is selectable from the menu. It writes all memory with zeroes, then sleeps for 90 minutes before checking to see if bits have changed (perhaps because of refresh problems). This is repeated with all ones for a total time of 3 hours per pass.
Many chipsets can report RAM speeds and timings via SPD (Serial Presence Detect) or EPP (Enhanced Performance Profiles), and some even support changing the expected memory speed. If the expected memory speed is overclocked, Memtest86 can test that memory performance is error-free with these faster settings.
Some hardware is able to report the "PAT status" (PAT: enabled or PAT: disabled). This is a reference to Intel Performance acceleration technology; there may be BIOS settings which affect this aspect of memory timing.
This information, if available to the program, can be displayed via a menu option.
Any other questions, they can most likely be answered by reading this great guide here:

Alright well, I ran memtest over night again. Still no errors. Despite this, I was kinda getting tired of it and just went out to my local Canada computers and actually exchanged the ram (It was almost two mouths old and the return policy was 14 days, they took it anyway cause I spend a bunch of money there) and bought some Corsair Vengance RAM (another 32gb of it). And...... BAM, problems are gone. I have had, for the first time mind you, about 4 hours of gaming without any problems, or any blue screens.
When I spoke to the guy at the store, he said that it could've have been a compatibility issue and that's why Memtest wasn't catching it.
Either way, all seems well for now atleast, ill update again in a couple days to let you know.
Either way, thanks so much for your help, this would've been so much harder without your help.

Hi,
That's good to hear. It have also simply been chip-creep with your old RAM, but if you already at a time took the memory out and re-seated it, I doubt it. Compatibility issues are also a possibility, but Memtest shows that in errors. An error in Memtest doesn't always mean faulty memory (more than generally it DOES), but it can also be because your memory isn't at the proper voltage, timings, you name it.
Anyway, keep me updated since swapping out the RAM.

Patrick
