When running multiple applications, all crash

It must be down to a Windows fault, when you copy and paste something it uses the "clipboard" to temporarily store the data to be transferred.
Perhaps try repairing your Windows with the disk?

Considered running a registry cleaning program? It could be a cause of your troubles.
Something like Regcure

I hope it is a Windows fault... My RAM cost me 25 euros, my HDD is something I salvaged from another PC, but if it's my CPU... I paid 160 euros for that piece of kit.

I'm going to buy a 120GB OcZ SSD and reinstall Windows altogether.

I clean my registry once a month with Piriform CCleaner.

Did the problems not occur some time after cleaning the registry? I've heard some horror stories about CCleaner managing to corrupt peoples registry files at times.

Hopefully a clean install will solve this problem.

I don't remember, I don't recall.

I hope so as well. :/

Thanks for all the help, everyone. It must've been a corrupt Windows installation.
