    BSOD. 8 different errors. More common playing GW2.


    This has been happening for several months, and I've been slowly trying to work on it.

    It first started when I installed an SSD as my main drive. The crashes would happen several times a day and sometimes back to back. Sadly I don't have the dumps from those. I took the SSD back out, and went back to my old setup. The blue screens still happened, but far less often sometimes not for a week or more. I believe I have minidumps from the last 17 crashes.

    I'm making this thread because since the launch of GW2 (yesterday) I have received 6 crashes.

    If any other information is needed just let me know.

    Welcome
    The report points toward memory.Take this test.
    Run for 8 passes.
    Then test each stick in a good slot for 6 passes.
    If you have dual channel, the results may be incorrect, if shows pass.

    I'd be so happy if it was ram.
    I'll run this tonight.
    Thanks.

    Leave it running for 8 passes and then if it does not show errors. Test each stick for 6 passes.

    Wait. Ok theres a read line across the screen that means there's an error right?
    Should I move on to doing them 1 at a time?

    If you do have an error, continue doing one stick at a time, but you must solve the problem of the error. You may need new ram.
