Can you give more specific details on your computer? i.e. motherboard, processor, RAM, video card, etc?
Based on the fact this a new computer built by your friend, it sounds like either a hardware component is damaged or failing (most particularly, RAM), or that the chipset drivers for your motherboard have not been installed.

As above, check the RAM and other components to make sure they aren't faulty and are seated correctly.
Then check to make sure all device drivers are installed - go to Control Panel/Performance and Maintenance/System. Click on the Hardware tab and then Device Manager button. If there's anything with a red X or ! next to it, that means the device driver is not installed. If this is the case, install the respective driver.
If that doesn't fix it, time to spend some $$ and take it to a computer shop to have it checked out.
