Sudden BSOD crashes

Ok I will keep that in mind. I'll be on holiday until Oct 20 so won't be able to work on this stuff for a little while but I'll post back when I'm home again. Thanks for all the help!

Thanks for the reply! It's actually a little comforting to know that this is fairly common... haha. Hopefully the new RAM will be better. Have to say I'm disappointed that two sets of RAM from Corsair have had problems.

The other two slots wouldn't work at all, but that configuration isn't supported by the motherboard so I'm not sure if that's the reason why or if the motherboard is defective. I also decided to try all 4 sticks again just for kicks and again, it worked for a short while but after a few hours I...

It's in the same slots. In the manual for my motherboard it suggests using specific slots for two sticks

My motherboard doesn't support using 3 sticks - only 1, 2, or 4

Running the RAM test with one stick and there are 0 errors with the first pass, just like yesterday's tests. I don't understand why everything broke again today, even after I ran memtest with all 4 sticks as the final test yesterday. Should I RMA my motherboard?

So the memory test errored out, I rebooted and now my computer is frozen here. There is no animation on the loading circle graphic, it's just frozen.

So the BSODs started again today, 3 in a row each with different errors. They rebooted so fast I didn't catch the error codes. I'm running the RAM tests again now, not sure what else to do. Update: the test is hanging at "Measuring CPU/cache/mem speeds" Update 2: I forced a reboot and now the...

Yes I did test each stick individually and no errors came back. My motherboard mfg suggests when only using one stick to use a specific DIMM only (the furthest right slot) - will it cause problems if I use only one stick in other slots? Also tested just 2 sticks in and no errors. Now I have 4...

I tested each stick of ram separately (4x8GB) and the results came back with 0 errors. I'm trying the test now with only 2 instead of all 4. When I tested all 4 together yesterday the test couldn't finish due to so many errors. Is it possible that one of the DIMM slots on my motherboard is bad?

Ok I will have to post the results in about 9 hours, need to get some sleep now. Thank you for your help - and I'll be back with results of testing each stick at a time.
