    Well turns out I think it’s a hardware problem, think it might be my video card, but not sure.  I have a brand new clean install of Windows 7 on there and still experiencing the crashes.  They are usually whole PC lock ups, power off is the option.  Or the whole thing just shuts down on it’s own.  Seems kinda random, but when I try to record live programing I only make it a few minutes and it’s locked up.  I’ve run windows disk scans and memory checks with no problems noted.   The computer has never been the same or stable since the EVGA GeForce GT430.

     

    Once I get this fixed, what would you suggest for a codec approach on my clean install?  All I really need is live TV, Xvid for avi files, and MKV support.
