Are you able to boot into Safe Mode? if so once you are into safe mode go to system properties and choose the advanced tab.

Under Advanced choose settings under Startup and Recovery. On Startup and Recovery screen uncheck Automatically restart.

This will basically keep the blue screen up and not restart. The blue screen will give an error code. Google that Error code as a good starting place.

Test the memory would not hurt download the Microsoft Memory Diagnostic from their website and run that, you will have an option for ISO for Cd boot or a floppy boot.
