no, for sata drives, there are no jumpers, no nothing, just hook the sata cable up, and the power cable, thats all you need.

Yep, there is no master/slave I believe. That's only how some drives illustrate them. They are literally just "1", "2", "3" and "4". Master/Slave isn't used at all with standard S-ATA.

That could be an issue with any driver. What are you doing when it occurs?

All I can say is try downloading the newest graphics drivers from the website. Graphics drivers can cause all sorts of issues. If that doesn't solve the issue, try using only one of your two RAM sticks and see if you can resolve the problem. If that solves the problem, you have a problem with your RAM (again? lol, it happens, I've been there) but if it doesn't, then you may want to look at the graphics card itself. If you have another graphics card (or onboard graphics) you can try, do that. If still nothing, post back. If that solves the issue, RMA the graphics card.

ok no problem will look into the options you listed = thank you. I left the comp on overnight and got another blue screen.

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED AREA

is this similar and linked to the drivers?

Regards
Dave

You're not going to like this, but PAGE FAULT IN NON PAGED AREA is, without question, faulty RAM. Time to send it back! :(

However, your temperatures are also very high. If you leave the sides off your case there needs to be some airflow to help cool the PC. Despite having a much larger vent, stagnant air stil isn't a good way of cooling a CPU...

lol 2 faulty rams in a row :) my luck :) whats the chances its the motherboard ram slots? hope not, just eliminating the options.

Could the other blue screen fault and restarts be beacuse of the ram to? if it just effecting the computer left right and centre? Thanks for your help on this sam, youve been a real help!

As it happens, yes, that happens more often than you might think. Try not using the RAM slots you're currently using. If you don't have enough spare ones, then temporarily remove a stick. See how things progress in the other slots. If you don't get any errors, it could well be a faulty RAM slot, in which case put one of the sticks back in the old slots to work out which one it is.
