I'm assuming I do those tests through an MS-DOS prompt? What if if I can't
even get it to boot far enough to get to a DOS prompt?

Thanks!

Suggestion :-

1.Run "memtest" to stress the ram. If memtest reports the ram is
faulty, ram is bad. Sometimes some faulty ram can pass memtest .Reset
the memory stick to another slot.If You have More then one Stick of
Ram Take out one memory stick And Run "Memtest" on each separately .
If windows does not crash, the removed memory stick is faulty.

2.Check the temperature of the CPU and make sure that it is not
overheat. Make sure that the CPU fan works properly . Try Changing It

3.Clean the dust inside the computer case

4.Make sure that your PSU have adequate power For all the hardware.

5.Update Video Card Drivers. Also Reset video card. Run 3DMark to test
your video card. Check to default setting if you video card is
"overclocked"

6. Run chkdsk /r at command prompt
