    tehshredder,
    I don't know the answer to your question, but if the ram came with a fan, then I'd install the fan if such is physically possible on your computer.

    An idea would be to visit the site of the supplier of your ram and see if they have any insight as to whether the fan is necessary or not.

    I have had my comp on for a good 5 hours now without any problems, i think it was the update to sp2. I have made a enquiry to corsair about the RAM fan and am waiting for them to reply on the case. Thankyou all that helped and i will post back if the problem persists =]

    Hey, i just left my computer to watch a movie (lasted about 2h), it went into standby or something, then i come back and click the mouse the wake it and the comp powers up then i got a BCOD error MEMORY MANAGEMENT (dump file attached) and comp restarted. I think it has to be corrupt RAM, i am still waiting for reply from corsair about the 'case' i submitted. What else could it be? i have tried everything suggested except the cleanup utility(which i will do now) for the programs i couldn't find and removing and testing the RAM individually-this wont stuff anything up will it if its ment to be with the 'twin' pair or anything? any further help would be appreciated

    Hi -

    I continue to get symbol errors as before when processing the latest dump file.

    I still see these drivers in the most recent dump from your new install.
    Same ones found in your precios OS installation, per my last post (except Hamachi) --> https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...tml#post615089

    Code:
    vrtaucbl.sys Tue Jun 10 21:43:52 2008 (484F2DD8)
    atikmdag.sys Wed Jan 14 00:19:12 2009 (496D75D0)
    Rtlh86.sys   Mon Jun 25 01:37:23 2007 (467F5493)
    sptd.sys     Sun Oct 11 16:54:02 2009 (4AD245EA)
    lirsgt.sys   Sun Jan 29 06:06:18 2006 (43DCA1AA)
    `
    Did you go to the Microsoft Genuine Advantage site and validate your OS installation? I ask because the version/ version #'s on some modules related to security seem "off".

    WGA validation --> www.microsoft.com/genune

    WGA Diagnostic Tool --> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012

    Run the latter - you can see the results for yourself. No personal information is transmitted to MS.

    Hi guys, so its been about a week and i am still getting BSOD errors, my system is genuine and i am still trying to resolve it with corsair. I just wanted to say that I was just testing the ram again then with memtest and I did something different. In memtest I went to configuration - memory sizing and selected BIOS –all. It turned up a total of 504 errors with a failing address or 000fec00000. Is this why I’m getting the errors?
    thanks

    I would say no ............

    to quote from the official forum for memtest86
    Problems Running Memtest
    ------------------------

    - When I select BIOS-ALL I get many errors or my machine crashes.

    This is normal. With todays computers this option should never be selected.
    When selecting BIOS-ALL memtest will ignore the e820 memory map supplied by
    the BIOS and will also test areas reserved by the BIOS for the processor or
    the BIOS. See the question about which memory is test for more information
    on this.
