Constant bsod and kernel panic

[Underi]

Hi! I'm currently having a huge freaking problem. My old k50af has started kernel panicing. A lot. First it  was in linux mint. I could barely boot it and use for 5 minutes after opening chrome and it'd freeze. It has 4gb of ddr3. Also at boot it might give cpu kernel panic. Or not accept sda5 crypt password. Or freeze at decrypting. I thought I'd install windows 7 again I Mean it worked before with it why not now? Well I burned iso on usb with unetbootin. It didn't fucking boot. Now a month later I tried with Rufus and windows 10. it installed yes but got into bsod loop after booting to finish setup. So I tried windows 7 and Rufus. THIS Time I thought I had done it. I installed, I finished setup. . .  Opened IE to install Chrome. Then it slapped me and said no. I booted again. Bsod. reboot. bsod. And now it's sitting on my table waiting to be fixed. What can I do anymore? I just want to rip it open and fucking drill through the cpu and buy a new laptop. Well unless they were so damn pricy.

do a ram test with a linux live cd?

Run a memory test using memtest86+ or something similar. If it passes, then you must have some more serious (and likely unfixable) problem.

 

Edit: Also, this should not be in the Networking section, you would get more responses elsewhere.

If a full/thorough RAM test comes back OK, I'd next try a live CD/USB to rule out a hard drive issue.

@SCHISCHKA @brwainer @WatfordJC I did ram test with memtest86 and there were no errors. What next?

I agree with @WatfordJC for what your next step should be.

Sorry for superlate response I believe it is the HDD then. I've tried to format it with DBAN but it kernel paniced in a few seconds after it started formatting. I'll buy a new HDD this month and see how that turns out.
