Maybe I'm confused on the specific symptoms. Lack of sleep.

It was freezing during post, right? Before Windows, at the ASUS splash screen?

Does it sometimes boot to Windows but sometimes not? And when it crashes in Windows, what does the crash entail? More specific symptoms.

Okay, it varies

Yesterday (Before I took out everything, unhooked everything from MB and then put it back in) it would get to ASUS Splash screen and then hold there. I couldn't press F2 or Del, nothing would happen.

I then took the USB devices out, it would load to my bios screen, i would plug back in the USB KB and mouse, it would get to windows load screen, I would log into windows and it would crash.

What happens during a crash is, my computer continues to run, however, my monitors go black and say they are going to sleep - sometimes the screen would freeze up before going to sleep. This happens in all modes (chkdisk, safe, normal).

I even tried loading Windows 7 into my harddrive. It would crash and turn my monitor off as stated before.

I've unplugged and kept my HD unplugged for over 2 hours with stable usage. I've already RMA'd for a new HD and also bought a new one (so 4 TB's of storage for 50$.. too sweet of a deal to pass on tonight.
