I just bought a new PC and used the older HDD from my laptop to power it up, obviously removing all other incompatible drivers then reinstalling compatible ones.
But now this is the second time it has happened whist playing Fallout 3/Vegas - TTW mod
PC is more than powerful to play. What could this mean:

Btw when it gets to 100% it [i]doesn't[/i] restart. Just stays there for hours non-stop.
Not only that but I actually did 2 Thorough disk analysis check to check for HDD errors on both hard drives, couldn't check results as I slept through it
Looks like a RAM issue.

1 stick of RAM, should I reinsert?
It did it again so I put the piece of RAM into another slot to see if that helps, will update if it does.

This is a new build as well... Damn
To test the ram, use [URL="http://www.memtest.org/"]Memtest86[/URL].
The testing can take a few hours and you should let it run at least 1 pass.
Basically all you need to know is that red = bad and if that happens, just RMA the ram.
It happened again, going to look further into this situation and contact the manufacturer perhaps get a replacement

Apparently "luafv.sys" can have malware installed into and one way to check is to check for any size difference; the original should be around 84.5kb and I noticed that mine was 174kb. This obviously instantly aroused suspicion but with it being a system file I couldn't delete it.
A file shredder came in handy for this and I used my brothers "luafv.sys" to replace instantly and then reinstalled the computer.
Fingers crossed that this is the end of this shenanigans (touch-wood). Will update if any further issue arrives as I made need help.
Also contacted the manufacturers support team for assistance so I am sure it will get sorted one way or another, perhaps it's sorted itself because of my shred and replace method. One can hope.
Support mentioned I do a memtest so I did a memtest and:

Don't use Windows memory diagnostic. Use memtest86. From that image I can't tell if ram is an issue.
