Default What application is best to test my windows 7 computer for hardware errors?
I'm getting crazy BSODs all over the place. I run Windows 7 ultimate x64. I have scanned for rootkits, virii, malware, and every other software hiccup with a great many programs and am convinced my hardware is to blame. So a program that goes into great depth with this would be great!

You might want to try ccleaner to scan and remove registry errors first.

Probably faulty memory like people have hinted at here. Perhaps you could try switching the RAM out with some different sticks.

OCCT is yet another stress test for your PC.
