Firstly the ettiquette of reserving caps for shouting was introduced
by bearded middle aged geeks not children.

Secondly "....at someone they never met (nor will ever meet) from
across the country" country? you're American right?

Since you seem to have no regard for the well established customs of
USENET, why not go the whole hog and use HTML so you can differentiate
between information and a plea for help?

As for your problem it seems you have tried every software
troubleshooting route ever invented plus a few more. I would like to
suggest that either your RAM is in fact failing despite the passed
tests ( I have had sticks pass memtest shortly before falling over) or
more likely, you mentioned no hardware changes except a new hard disk,
your system has 4 hard drives and an optical drive all on a system
that looks to be a couple of years old (originally) at least is your
power supply original? It could be possible that unless you do in fact
have at least a 400W PSU that too much power is being drawn by the
drives causing the CPU and Memory to be underpowered when they are
doing intensive Multimedia Tasks. Even though you have run the system
with less drives in and still got the same unfortunate result it may
be possible that the PSU or perhaps even the motherboard has suffered
some minor little error as a result that is now causing your problems.
I may be way off but PSU's are cheap enough to give it a try.
