[SOLVED] Lots of crashes

Hi,

Since about 4 months ago, my pc has started to crash very frequently. The problem was that my cpu was overheated.. During a game, it could climb to 100 degrees. This problem however, was fixed by EVGA precision. I've put my fan speed to 100%. This is of course only a temporary solution, but it stopped my pc from crashing all the time.

But since a month, BSOD's started to occur frequently again. This time, not only during gaming, but also while booting my pc. When my pc finally booted, I quickly checked the temperature of my pc, but it was not too hot: 65°C. When it crashed, I tried rebooting with no luck. Strange enough, when it kept crashing, all of sudden my keyboard didn't work, so I couldn't select safe mode, nor could I press F8. When I left my pc for a while, my keyboard worked again.

There is a great variety of BSOD's.. Most of them are IRQL not less or equal, or Bad pool header, but there are other BSOD's too.. I'll write every code down next time I get these bluescreens.

What I also noticed was, when I didn't plug in my headset and mouse, my computer booted perfectly without any BSOD, and I didn't have the problem with my keyboard. Once I plugged one of them back in, it crashed. My mouse is a USB mouse, my headset is not. Now I'm working with another mouse which is not from Logitech and this one does work.

I don't have any idea how to solve my problem, so every help is welcome!

Thanks,
Thomas

EDIT: When I posted my problem about the temperature, people told me the computer's voltage was too high. Maybe it has anything to do with this?
