Computer freezes with video

Memtest is a solid choice. I had similar issues that i fought for 3 months before determining it was bad ram. A quick RMA to corsair fixed that and it's been smooth sailing ever since. Set memtest to run and let it go over night for 8+ hours.

Could Malwarebytes or Ad-Aware cause this problem?

Get off of IE6, if you do indeed have malware I would bet that it was either because of the security issues with IE6 or a security issue with Adobe reader.

Ugh.... PC won't boot anymore.......

Not saying this is the cause, but something to consider. PC's that were unknowingly infected with the Alureon rootkit and the MS10-015 was installed can cause a reboot loop when conditions are right. http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=8266&rss

New vid card with 1 g vram, but Win 7 still says I have 3.5/4 g memory usable?

A video card that is standalone (pci-x) will not cause your RAM count to go down. This only occurs when your video is onboard and it's sharing your system ram. Windows of any flavor in 32 bit will only show 4GB and only address between 3.2-3.5GB of that. The only exception to this is if you...

New Comp - Won't Read Second HD

Your sata emulation mode won't matter here. That purely controls the ability of the drive (or interface rather) to support AHCI (advanced host controller interface) functions such as NCQ (native command queuing). Does another IDE get recognized when you plug it in?
