You can choose to just move old windows files into a folder called windows.old, you can also just unplug the harddrive which you don't want to lose information off of.

I already ran memtest86 on both sticks separately and stress tested using prime, so I don't think memory is an issue. I used a can of compressed air and a small paintbrush to clean my pc, as I already stated on the OP. My gpu acted up a little while back but it was seemingly working okay for the last 3 months or so, I'll check by using an older gpu later, for now, I noticed some pins on my cpu socket that were reflecting light differently and weren't even, I slightly straightened them back in line, I also cleaned off some thermal paste off of a contact on the top of my cpu right next to the lid, even though it looked like the old, non conductive thermal paste I was using and finally I reseated my cpu, I'll continue to use my pc today and check if it crashes, if it does I'll test the gpu, if not, I'll mark this as solved. EDIT: Pc is running stable, might've been thermal paste, might've been pins, thank you all for your help

That was one of my first thoughts, so I took a flashlight and checked every pcb closely, every mosfet, cap, and just about everything seems to be okay and nothing appears to be shorting them, also took out both sidepanels to check for maybe a loose screw or something, and there's none of that.

Nope, it remained in place, all I did was gently clean the thermal paste off and reapply new one.

Exactly, which is weird, as I checked everything and was really careful while cleaning it, it should be working better now, but instead it turns off.

Hey guys, yesterday I decided it was time to dust off my computer to lower temps as it is summer here and I don't have the best cooling, so I took it outside and with a can of compressed air and a little paint brush along with some alcohol for thermal paste cleaned every component part by part, disassembled the gpu and dusted it, cleaned every single fan blade, also dusted the cpu heatsink and fan then replaced the crappy thermal paste with some AS5. So everything's fine and dandy, except for this fan that I usually turned off because it was making a crapload of noise, so I took that out, and I set my computer back up again, double-checking everything, and everything was working fine, it was POSTing and stuff so I decided to test temperatures, 30ºc idle on both cpu and gpu, while on load cpu reaches a max of 65ºc and gpu gets to temp limit at 80ºc, which is okay considering I have a reference style cooler on it. So temperatures were okay, but suddenly the computer started shutting off out of nowhere, just like when you cut power to it or hold down the power button, it just turns off and starts again, now, this might seem like PSU failure, but the PSU was doing okay in the horrible heat that was inside my case without turning off, and now it's running way cooler, which should make it run better, along with the fact that I removed some fans that weren't being used most of the time, I also put a drop of machine oil in a couple of fans to lubricate them as they were running way slower than what they could. I have so far tried a bunch of things, undervolting both my cpu and gpu, disconnecting fans, I even checked my power button headers for shorts. Everything's perfectly connected, no busted caps on mobo, psu or gpu either, so I ran out of ideas, what could the problem be? Also, if I don't use the pc for a long period of time, say overnight, it won't turn off, but as soon as I start using it, it takes anywhere from 15 minutes to 5 hours to turn off by itself. I'm on my latest bios version, OS is windows 8.1 x64, system specs are on my signature and I have a 500w psu, I also have to once again say that I'm puzzled as this was working perfectly fine, running demanding games for 10 hours on end before I cleaned it up

Due to the meme's popularity and the steady growth of the coin, it's recommended that everyone mines atleast 100k, before difficulty goes up. You never know, and with a decent mining rig you could get that in a day or so. EDIT: Dogecoin just surpassed NXT, Novacoin, Feathercoin and Primecoin.

https://www.cryptsy.com/markets/view/132 It's now accepted on cryptsy and selling at a good price.

It's rising very steadily and people are inflating it, so it's normally selling at 1 DOGE = 0.01 BTC, and rising.

wow much crypto such currency so coin wow Why should you get into Dogecoin? Well, Dogecoin is a steadily rising cryptocurrency. It is pretty new, so it's easy to acquire, although it's becoming harder fast, it's becoming increasingly more valuable with time and it's getting more and more popular, which probably has to do with the fact that it is related to the doge meme, which gives it some popularity, also, it's a good time to jump on it as BTC is bombing fast. I recommend jumping on the bandwagon asap, as it's probably going to get bigger from here on out and there is profit to be made. http://dogecoin.com/ is the official website which has links to the wallet. I recommend these 2 pools: http://doge.gentoomen.org/ or http://doge.netcodepool.org/ Also, this video sums up why you should start mining it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcaltexImW0

Around 8 I built some crappy pc out of spare parts, it had an Athlon 64 x2, some MSI board, 7300gs and 1gb of ram. I remember upgrading from a Pentium 4 3ghz with 512mb of ram and a Geforce 4, back when 512mb of ram was a big difference in what your computer could and couldn't do, it was just amazing. A couple of years after that my mobo failed and I built my actual first build from scratch, 2gbs of ram, a q8200, geforce 9400gt, again, the difference just blew my mind, I eventually upgraded that 9400gt to a 550ti, and the 2gb to 4gb, then switched over to z77 but kept the gpu, although that build is still in my closet, it still runs most stuff you throw at it, so i'm pretty proud of that being my 1st build from scratch.

I searched for bananas and got this too. They know The end is nigh They are coming You could have prevented it

Kingston, they're usually cheap and easy to find down here in South America, never had a stick fail on me, and when I tried to overclock them they worked pretty nicely too.

Had an old dying rig built from scrap in my closet while I got the parts for my actual rig, which I'm now using. Thing had a pentium 4 3ghz with HT, 512mb of ram, 6300 which I literally brute forced a fan on to keep temps ice cold as it was passively cooled, kinda neat except it lacked some ram. Long story short, I put different ram than what the motherboard used, forced it on, it bent and I didn't notice, turned it on and a spark, pop and a fizz, one of the mosfets fried.
