What operating system is it? Has it just started happening? Anything obvious changed at that point? hardware/software etc

It started when I had xp on so I upgraded to vista and the problem was fixed for about a week then I installed windows 7 and it was fine till last week

Also iv had no hardware change since windows xp I'm on an a q6600 at stock speed
and Iv tryed 4 clean installs of all my os

Kind of implies it must be hardware related.. what about the bios?

Edit: might be worth doing a memtest on it to rule out ram
