    Doc I would say ram is ok as it came out your other PC. Try upgrading the bios for the motherboard, see how that goes. Check your graphics card is seated properly recheck your cables to see if there all nice and tight.

    Cheers kimball492, I'll give that a go tonight, I have tried swapping out the graphics card for the one that was in my DAW PC (it says Sapphire on the Graphics Card's heatsink and apparently it's an AMD Radeon R7 200 series card), and so far the Hackintosh PC hasn't fallen over, I'm thinking that the other Graphics Card ( an ATI Radeon HD 4870 512Mb) I had in it was probably drawing too much power from the Power Supply and it was shutting down due to overloading, best theory I can come up with so far, but I guess it won't hurt to do a Motherboard Bios update, although that can be risky, if the Bios update fails, that could render the motherboard unbootable unless I was lucky enough to find a replacement Bios Chip.


    I'm going to give updating the Motherboard Bios a go shortly.
