Ok, I just ordered a bunch of new parts for my system. What I'm running now is...

AMD Athlon 64 3700+ (San Diego)
DFI LANParty n4-D Mobo
2x512 Kingston HyperX (Timings: 2.5, 3, 3, 6, 12)
80Gig WD Caviar
120Gig WD Caviar
XFX 7800 GT O/C'd
OCZ Powerstream 520 PSU

For some reason, I can't get this setup to run stable. Those memory timings are lowered from the auto set timings of 2, 3, 2, 6, 12. Everything is running cool. I've made it through one run on 3DMark 05 without a problem. Then I go to install World of Warcraft, and it will randomly restart during certain points of the install. Any suggestions, please?
 
Alright, hopefully I figured out the solution to my problem. I didn't have an extra FDD connector, or HDD connector plugged into the mobo. Hope this works, wish me luck!
 
That was definitely not the problem. I was playing Farcry, and I exited it to change some video card driver settings. When I went to go play it again, some Win32 General Process's thing gave me an error. So I try running it again, nothing happens, then I cntrl+alt+delete to see what the hell is going on, and there is a drwatson32 process taking a bunch of my processing power. So I end task it, and try to open Firefox, it gives me some long error about how it couldn't access part of some DLL.

This is starting to make me think my motherboard is defective or something. I honestly have run out of answers, and have no idea what to do next.
 
Could be the software, try reinstalling windows, running a virus scan, spybot, adaware. Usually hardware problems are more repeatable than software, imo
