There are some diagnostic tools your can try from http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ . They have some hard drive utilites that should be able to help you out. Your problem might even actually be bad ram, but without more info I can't be certain.

I have had this problem before. THe only answer i could get from my computer company was "Format your C:Drive." SO i tried everything,but i had to do this. There is other ways, but try to get another hard drive if possible and move the data over. OR restore from backup. Email me at imike218@gmail.com for more help!

First question:
Can you boot your computer into safe mode? As the computer is booting up, press the F8 key several times to bring up the boot options menu. Select safe mode and press enter. Once in safe mode, you're going to want to turn off rebooting on system failure so you have a chance to read the information on the blue screen.
Right click "My computer" and go to properties. If you're on Vista or Windows 7, click "Advanced system properties." The very bottom option is "startup and recovery." Under the section regarding system failure, uncheck the box that says "automatically reboot." The next time you get the blue screen, come back to this question and post what it says.
If you cannot boot into safe mode, can you post the stop code from the blue screen? It should begin with 0x000 or 0xc000.
