    Hi, Today i got a BSOD and when i restarted the computer I got a message on the POST screen saying an error occurred because i was either overclocking the computer or due to voltage changes. So i just loaded the default settings from the bios. I have also uploaded the Minidump could you take a look when you have time. Should i also take one of the ram sticks out to test them. Thank you

    Yes, test your RAM as outlined in my previous post.

    Crash still points to RAM as the likely cause.

    Good news (so far)! Best wishes it continues to be good. :)

    Look forward to another update when you have time and have had a chance to do your normal routine for a longer period.

    Hi Mate, just another update. It has been quite some time now and the BSOD hasnt occured since i installed the second RAM. I think it could be the first RAM stick which is faulty. So if i was to go out and buy a new RAM stick should i buy the same brand and same size one or could i use any? Thanks
