Sounds like a hardware problem, perhaps faulty RAM. Test with a
RAM diagnostic tool such as this one:
http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp

Also, it wouldn't hurt to talk to tech support for that system. Since it is
new, you are still under warranty and that usually covers problems with bad
hardware.

Another thought: Check power supply connections and that cables are
connected securely.

Overheating, bad ram, flaky video card or bad drivers, bad power supply.

However, if it's new, you shouldn't have to do the troubleshooting. Call the
manufacturer to see what they say.
