Suggestion since you do not really know what has caused the problem would be to:

1.  Restore the system to the original state that it was in before you took it out of the box.

2.  Let Best Buy look at it.

3.  Exchange for another unit

 

I have seen that system at Best Buy.  Very nice!!  That would be my next system if possible, I think.

 

Simplest fixes since it is that new.  If #1 is you choice, when it is done take your time setting it back up the way you want it.  Dont change the settings on it until you have put on all the software and hardware you want, to ensure stablity from that point on.  Dont forget check updates as well.

Since you are at your 15 days on the computer I would exchange for another unit. It could be different things. (Processor, chipset, motherboard, memory, etc.....).  Hopefully this helps.

 

I am runninging into these issues with my system as well but I am wanting to say it is my video card.  Bought a new power supply just need the video card. **around a 2 or 3  year old system though, here.
