I haven't switched the RAM yet but I got another BSOD that I don't think had to do with the RAM. Seems to be the same file size as the other BSOD that had to do with the 1394 being disabled.
I was playing Civilization V by the way just to narrow it down a little.
There definitely seems to be some conflict with your sound devices. Can any of the devices be disabled through the BIOS?
Alright I disabled my onboard 1394 and my onboard audio in BIOS.
Sounds good. Post back if you have similar crashes. Hopefully this will help narrow the problem down to something more tangible, or better yet, it will eliminate the crashes altogether.
Alright was going strong and then it just froze. Here is your complimentary minidump :).
I was just finishing up a website I was doing and went to cancel my browser just a note. Guessing this one has to do with my hardware. I'll install the other RAM.
Download and install CPUZ and Upload screenshots of the CPU, Mainboard, Memory, and SPD tabs.
Also, go into your BIOS and post all RAM and CPU Voltages and all RAM settings (timings, frequency, etc.)
Well everything is set to auto in my BIOS and I didn't get much info out of it but here's what I did get.
CPU frequency 2800MHz
DRAM frequency 1333MHz
And these were all set to auto but I'm getting the standard is what I'm using which is this:
NB Voltage 1.10V
HT Voltage 1.20V
RAM Voltage 1.50V
CPU VDDA Voltage 2.50v
DRAM CAS 9-9-9-24
Bump the NB Voltage to 1.20 V. Manually set the timing to 9-9-9-24 and command rate to 2T. See if the system runs more stable.
Thanks to Dave76 for help learning RAM Stability
What are the results of the RAM setting changes?

Eh I still have a few crashes and freeze ups. Not as frequent though.
