comp keeps freezing

Thread Starter 
Build in the sig obviously. Anyways, my computer is still a rather new build, overclocked it to 3.7 ghz about a month ago and it was very stable...past few days it's been getting horrid and keeps freezing...it's like my explorer isn't working. I can move my mouse and not click anything on my desktop.

So I started to check event viewer under custom views >administrative events...i'm getting a lot of errors with this description:

Source:
atikmdag
event log
kernel-power

kernel-power is always "critical" and atikmdag is always an "error"...

anyone have any ideas...ive put my 955 BE back down to 3.2 ghz and it's still doing it =/

at a total loss!

Nope. I figured I was safe not doing that because I manually changed it back to what it was at stock...I thought at first it was the ram but it ran memtest for 6+ hours with 0 errors...completely lost

reset the BIOS and see how that goes.

have you had any problem with whirring noises on your HD?

Do you have any HD imaging software running?

At first i would have said a bad overclock ( still can be ) but could be a boogard driver. If it were me I would try the easiest thing first like jimibgood stated system restore.
