    BSOD problems


    I've get periodic BSOD shutdowns. MS says it's CPU, PS, Memory, or Mainboard related (big help narrowing that down). I ran Passmark Burn In testing and found no errors (first run I did experience some 2D Graphic card memory failures, but subsequent testing revealed nothing).

    Enclosed is the latest dump file and screen shots from CPU-ID.

    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Windows 7 64bit (clean install)
    Asus P5K-E motherboard
    Wolfdale 8500 3.0 CPU
    OCZ DDR2-PC8500 memory running at 1066Mhz (4 2GB modules)
    Asus 8800 GT Graphics card 512mb

    I took a quick look at three of the dumps. They were very similar. All reported memory corruption.

    I would
    download memtestx86 and test the memory preferrrrrably overnight.
    run a system file check to verify your system files
    to run type cmd insearch>right click and run as admin>SFC /SCANNOW
    If you are overclocking STOP

    Hope this helps

    OK, I'll give it a go and see where we go.

    It was, indeed, a memory issue. One of my modules failed miserably. Going through OCZ for a RMA, now. Running on 4Gig and all seems to be running well.
