    Which stick did you run in slot 3 that showed up with errors? Or have you used multiple sticks and received errors in slot 3?

    Thank you so much! I guess it was just the bad RAM slot, been a few days with no BSODs

    I ran stick 3 in slot 3 when it gave me a error I ran stick 3 in slot 1 and it worked, I then ran stick 1 and slot 3 just to make sure it wasn't a fluke. and it gave me a error again. Right now I'm running with Sticks 1,2 and, 4 in slots 1,2 and, 4. I just got another Blue Screen it was a Bad Pool Header :/

    Let's see if we can track down why the RAM is causing problems.
    • Download and install CPU-Z and Upload screenshots of the CPU, Mainboard, Memory, and SPD tabs. In the SPD tab, upload an image of each slot.

    OK, I thought it was solved and I could wash my hands of BSODs but my computer disagrees. I've gotten 4 Blue screens last night (Irql less or not equal, Bad Pool Header, and 2 without error messages.) : / thanks again for everything you've done to help me out so far

    Well it seems that I was reading the RAM slots backwards. Ram slot #2 is empty and, according to memtest86+, was the one giving me errors.

    Timings look good, and the 666.7 MHz is fine with AMD boards. Try removing the RAM from the slot that is in dual channel mode with the bad slot. See if it runs stable with the remaining 4 GB.
