Quality and performance degraded

I originally installed ESO some 4 months ago on my OS and computer build that was about 3 years old at least at the time. After a few problems it worked quite well in medium to high settings but in the last 6 weeks the performance had degraded so that it was constantly crashing a just a few minutes into the game, the screen freezing and the error report form appearing .

About a week ago I reinstalled my OS on a new HDD and did all the upgrades and got my latest graphic drivers installed but since I reinstalled ESO I now cant even get access to the high setting i had previous and unless on the lowest settings the game now keeps crashing (freezing and error report)about a minute into play at max mostly. I have tried various options on settings,.I tried changing page file settings and assigning high cpu priority to eso.exe but it didn't work. Apart from the new HDD imstaled on to the rest of the hardware hasnt changed since first installing.

Also I have downloaded the game and installed three times now to no avail. Can anyone help as I cant bring my self to play on such low quality settings?

    RAM is part of the limiting factor, but you'd have to upgrade to a 64 bit operation system to make use of anymore anyway.
