    Memory Management BSOD


    I have recently upgraded my Mobo, CPU and RAM. However it BSOD's with memory_management as the error. What can I do to try and diagnose the issue?

    Thanks

    Your crash dumps are not showing any probable finite reason.

    Free up the startup. Windows does not need any other program to auto start with it, but the auto start programs often conflicts and causes various problems including BSODs.

    1. Click on the Start button
    2. Type “msconfig (without quotes), click the resulting link. It will open the System Configuration window.
    3. Select the “Startup” tab.
    4. Deselect all items other than the antivirus.
    5. Apply > OK
    6. Accept then restart.

    Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
    How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
    Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

    Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

    Are you overclocking? As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings. Also set the BIOS to default, too.

    Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy.

    If those tests comes good, enable Driver Verifier to monitor the drivers.
    Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable
    Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.

       Information
    Why Driver Verifier:
    It puts a stress on the drivers, ans so it makes the unstable drivers crash. Hopefully the driver that crashes is recorded in the memory dump.

    How Can we know that DV is enabled:
    It will make the system bit of slow, laggy.

       Warning
    Before enabling DV, make it sure that you have earlier System restore points made in your computer. You can check it easily by using CCleaner looking at Tools > System Restore.

    If there is no points, make a System Restore Point manually before enabling DV.

       Tip



    Let us know the results, with the subsequent crash dumps, if any. Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

    Also let us know how old the build is.

    Thank you for that, I will go ahead and do these steps.

    The system is about 2 days old. I am OCing, but it was done by the company (aria.co.uk) that I purchased the Mobo+CPU+Ram from.

    Furmark leveled off at 81-83 degrees. No artifacts.

    Remove the overclocking and follow the suggested steps. Those are just tests. Depending on the results we will suggest you the further steps.

    Furmark resulted good :)

    Ran memtest86+ for 8 passes, no errors. Removed OC.

    The PC is not hot, I will upload speccy in a bit. Starting driver verifier.

    OK, been running driver verifier all day, no issues. In fact since removing the OC settings it seems to be stable. Shame, I purchased this package because it was OC'd by people who should know what they were doing, I was hoping to get more performance for my money, rather than spend the extra on an i7.

    It happens. Sometimes overclocking fails. And when it fails, its better to not overclock.

    Sorry to know the solution, but happy that it is not crashing ATM :)
