SO here's the problem.
I have a windows vista home premium 32-bit. had it about three years, it's a quadcore with nvidea geforce 8800GTS installed. Worked fine, up until a few weeks ago.
I can't restart the computer, when I do it comes up with multiple blue error messages once it gets past the loading screen. Once the screen hits, the physical memory dumps and reboots itself in a repeated loop.
I've installed the service packs and even done a reinstall of Vista from a recovery disc, and nothing. I ran a memory diagnostic and it said there was a hardware issue, but it failed to tell me which hardware had the problem.
I ran a heat monitor and the CPU is at 100 degrees, GPU 80 degrees, and everything else is roughly 70-80 degrees. The computer now shuts off randomly. I've cleaned the fans multiple times with dust and they aren't dusty.
How can i fix this?
