Okay well, around 2 months ago, my PC started crashing about once everyday only when I played Starcraft 2, I would just ignore it, but now it happens quite a few times a day and it's getting really annoying, basically when it crashes and I restart it will say,
Files that help describe the problem:
C:\Windows\Minidump\012111-20451-01.dmp
C:\Users\Ben\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-35864-0.sysdata.xml
So I've gone into the event viewer and found quite a few errors.
A fatal hardware error has occurred.
Reported by component: Processor Core
Error Source: Machine Check Exception
Error Type: Bus/Interconnect Error
Processor ID: 1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000124 (0x00000000, 0x858a48fc, 0x00000000, 0x00000000). A dump was saved in: C:\Windows\Minidump\012311-19344-01.dmp. Report Id: 012311-19344-01.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The previous system shutdown at 1:28:21 PM on 23/01/2011 was unexpected.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Audit events have been dropped by the transport. 0

And this was a warning,

I have no idea what any of this means, but I've checked my CPU temp with Speedfan and my System temp stays around 45c, CPU around 37c, Core 0 and 1 around 40 but jump to around 50 when playing Starcraft.
So yeah I've had my PC setup for around 7 months without any modification of any hardware but only around 2 months ago did it start crashing.
My system specs are,
Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
Memory: 2048MB RAM
ATI Radeon 5750
Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20GHz 2.20GHz
P5GC-MX motherboard.
I also reformatted my PC after thinking it was a virus or something and that didn't work, I also couldn't install any chip sets because I can't find any for windows 7 :S, but it was never a problem 7 months ago. I'd really appreciate any help, thanks!
