I've been trying to figure it out for while now.

Bad RAM on the videocard, or just system RAM?

That looks like a RAM problem. It happens when I play Starcraft sometimes

Prolly video, UT2k4 had grapical issues when I had a bad stick, torrents were fucking up, and my system kept randomly restarting

Since I removed it, machine has been doing fine

Demi when you had this problem, would your computer fail to turn on sometimes? Also did the screen flicker?

No, just random restarts really

That sounds like a power issue

the sadness takes hold.

I was hoping it was just some little setting somewhere I'm missing.

I'll try reseating the card and what not though.

Definitely looks like a videocard problem. See if you can dig up a videocard to swap just to make sure that that's the problem, also try refreshing your videocard drivers.
