So can anyone tell me what is my best course of action now ? Considering the analysis you all made of my problem.

Please enlight me.

I thought you where buying the QVL ram then you where going to fit it to your motherboard and see if your system stabilizes ?

Yeah...I guess that'S the only thing to do ! :) I'll post back results :)

Mmm my minidump files all got erased for some reasons. I woke up this morning, open the CPU and the files all disappeared.

Is there a reason for that ?

CCleaner ?

or maybe your computer's decided it's fixed

This is weird I did not ran ccleaner and the program itself is not automatic or anything like that. I did remove a game throught ccleaner thougt...

Recently I also tried to lower down the timmings on my ram, have not bsod since, but program failures so I loosened them a bit, but still lower than what the mobo detect and the system seems more stable now.

Cant wait to receive my new ram thought :)

I'm confused. I changed my ram timmings to 7-8-8-22 instead of 7-9-9-24 as auto dectected by the mobo.

I pass 7 full pass of memtestx86+ 4.0 with the 2x2 installed.

No errors.

What does it can mean ?

lol...

never trust auto Bios settings if you are going to build computers you should know enough to set up your Bios manually and make sure all settings are correct

Do you think a timings set too high could cause BSOD ?

Do errors founds in memtestx86+ 4.0 usually mean you ram is faulty or it may be the result of bad settings ?

I thought instability and such problem only occured when you set timings too low so I never cared about it as long as my timings where not over the maximum settings ?

If that was my only problem, hell, I'm gonna hit my head on my desk many times lol !!!

Thanks again...

it is a bit odd on the timings as you tightened yours and usually you would have to loosen them is that the only thing you changed

defenately, it's the only thing I did changed. I got upset after a BSOD while in game and this corrupted my empire total war savegame lol.

so I decided to try the ram timings, having nothing to lose. (new ram on the way, was shipped today, and my RMA package is ready to send back !)

So since saturday afternoon, no bluescreen, no program failures, memtest 7 full pass no errors.

I'm like, ''wt*'' is going on ?

Thanks.
