After I turn my computer on and go into windows it lets me play around for about 1min then it just freezes up. I can move the mouse about but cant click on anything press alt+tab a few times and it just switches through blank windows and then completely freezes. This keeps happening each time I restart, When i press F8 during startup and go into safe-mode it is perfectly fine and I can play without the 1min freeze at startup. If I reinstall windows on my windows drive I can play again for about 10hours straight then it will freeze and if I try starting it up again it will come with the same problem.

Can you boot into Safe mode (F8 at startup) to see if it will freeze then?

Jump to PostTake out any other PCI card you have a boot. Leave the gfx card in. Do you still get the freezing problem? Also try, moving your RAM sticks into each slot that you have, may be a RAM slot issue.
