Crash memory dump roundabout!!

Any pointers for the following, please?
HP WS4600, W7Home 64, 8g ram, 1 Tb HD etc. First indication - "monitor going to sleep", followed by "windows is shutting down, memory crash dump blah, blah" end of. Try restart but as soon as "Windows is starting", 10 secs later same thing happens. Able to start in Safe Mode but attempts to use repair discs or reload Windows give same result. Tried using msconfig in Dos to minimise StartUp contents but still same result. Have removed and FIRMLY reseated RAM and the video card and same for HDs. Loaded Linux Mint and it worked fine from the CD drive but reluctant to 'go linux' altogether. Any obvious checks/ fixes still to do, please??
