BSOD, Possible Memory Error?

Hi, any help would be greatly appreciated. I am currently using an old PC, it was built for me in 2003 and has had extra bits added through the years. For a while now I get the dreaded blue screen of death,it happened when I used to run XP 32 bit and now when I run Windows 7 32 bit.

I think I have an error with my Ram because when I ran an official Microsoft error checker I was getting errors where the memory wasn't reaching the levels it was expecting.

The .zip file is attached showing the system health report and Dump & System File Collection.

Thanks the advice, diagnosed the faulty Ram and removed. So far so good, fingers crossed

Hi D Twizzle and welcome to SF!
From what I see you're on the right track. Reseat the RAM modules and test them following this tut.
RAM - Test with Memtest86+
If you find oxidation on the module contacts you can clean them with some rubbing alcohol and a Q-Tip or a cotton cloth.
Please report back with your findings.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (a)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high.  This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If a kernel debugger is available get the stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: 1000f858, memory referenced
Arg2: 00000002, IRQL
Arg3: 00000000, bitfield :
	bit 0 : value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
	bit 3 : value 0 = not an execute operation, 1 = execute operation (only on chips which support this level of status)
Arg4: 828696d2, address which referenced memory
