Hi

Since i built my new PC, some of my applications and games especially keeps crashing with "... has stopped working"
and i don't know what the problem is.. and how to find it.

But strangely, some others (major softwares like microsoft office, itunes, firefox ) is totally fine.

Not sure if this is a hardware prob..

Any ideas?

Doesn't sound like hardware, if you want to rule it out for sure try running MemTest and Prime95 (RAM and CPU respectively). If both come up okay, you've got a software problem.
