PCI Genius Sound maker value 5.1 (PCI)

1 dvd drive (samsung something cant remember model)

How to find and post your Minidump Files:

My Computer > C Drive > Windows Folder > Minidump Folder > Minidump Files.

It is these files that we need (not the folder). Attach to your next post the five most recent dumps so that we can read them.

Faulty RAM

Your windows is crashed with various bugcheck code such as 19, 1A, 50, 8E and C2. There have 5 minidumps with bugcheck code 1A. Probably the problem is related to faulty ram.
 
My new ram has come and installed 2GB (2x1gb) pc3200 DDR ram , installed fine but the computer still crashes randomly but not as much
