    Done. Says This Volume will be checked the next time the system restarts. I'll make sure to restart it before I go to bed given it takes a long time to complete. Anything I should be looking for after its done?

    Just whether it's fixed any errors, or reports any errors it couldn't fix.

    Sounds good. Do you have any new dump files you can upload?

    OK. Follow the instructions below.

    Download and run MemTest86+ to test your RAM. RAM - Test with Memtest86+

       Note


    Run MemTest86+ for at least 8 passes. Ideally set it off before you go to bed and leave it overnight, we're looking for zero errors here. A single error will show something's going bad with your RAM.

    I have already ran memtest with zero errors and switched the mem cards to different slots just to be sure. Even ran it 1 card at a time for a few hours each. I never got any errors after a few days of testing.

    This is why I've been so confused as to why I get BSOD that seem to point to memory problems yet none of the tests show any errors.
