3 BSOD's after memory upgrade

Chariot · 24 Feb 2011

Hello,

Three days ago, I've bought an additional 4gb of memory. I've chosen the same brand, the same type and the same amount as I had already.

The type of memory is Kingston Valueram KVR1066D3N7K2/4G.

The memory was not identical though. The chip brand and dimensions were different.

I've installed the memory according to the manual of my mainboard, to use the right slots etc.

But now I've had 3 BSOD's since the installation. I couldn't make a picture of the first one.

The second one:

*** STOP: 0x00000109

The third one stated:

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION

*** STOP: 0x0000003B
ksecdd.sys

I also ran memtest for about an hour, until it said it didn't find any errors and i could reboot. (It completed at least 1 pass), and it didn't find any errors.

Is there anything I can do about this? I already tried to look into the .dmb files, but they are like hieroglyphs to me. So maybe someone on this forum can have a look at these .dmb files?

Some information about my system:

Mainboard: asrock X58 Deluxe3
CPU: Intel i7 930
GPU: MSI nVidia gtx460
Intel 80GB SSD

If you need more information, or if you want to look at the dump files, please ask, and i'll upload it asap.

Thanks in advance,

Chariot.

No file is attached, upload it to a file hosting website instead :)

I have now attached it to the starting post.

I didn't click on save changes after uploading it, that was the problem :)

Please remove any CD virtualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%. They use a driver, found in your dmp, sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs. Use this SPTD uninstaller when you're done: DuplexSecure - Downloads
You can use MagicDisc as an alternative.

Code:

sptd.sys        fffff880`0107f000    fffff880`011a6000    0x00127000    0x4bbd315c    08/04/2010 05:29:00

Run Memtest86+ for at least 7 passes
RAM - Test with Memtest86+

But is this related to the BSODs i had the last few days? Because the date says 08/04/2010 05:29:00, which is almost a year ago...

And I will run memtest for 7 passes like you said.

That sptd.sys driver is a known BSOD causer, remove it for troubleshooting purposes. You can reinstall it after the fault is identified :)

Well, okay, but you gave me a link to SPTD uninstaller, but i only see installers for sptd. I'm not sure if I have installed this. The only virtual drive application I have installed is Virtual Clone drive. Maybe that SPTD driver is part of virtual clone drive? Should i uninstall virtual clone drive?

I never had any problems before with this application..
