    Okay, The last MemTest finished about 2 hours ago, Only got on the computer now. It showed up One error. I didn't know how to copy what it said so here is what I took down straight from the screen.

    ==========
    Tst: 3
    Pass: 0
    Failing Address: 00000100014 - 1.0mb
    Good: ffffffff
    Bad: fff8ffff
    Err-Bits: 00070000
    Count: 1
    CPU: 0
    ==========

    Writhziden, Are you able to translate this for me please?

    It means either the module you tested or the slot you tested is bad. I would recommend testing with the same module that produced the error in the other slot(s). If you do not want to run Memtest86+, just run Windows as you normally would with that module in the other slot. See if Windows is stable or not. Run that way for as long as it normally takes to get a crash. If it crashes, the module is likely bad. Test the other module in each slot by running Windows as long as it normally takes to get a crash. See if the system is then stable with that module. Remember to avoid static damage to your modules and PC.

    I tested Stick 1 and Stick 2 in Slot 1 and got no errors. Other for today, where I tested Stick 1 in Slot 2, So I take it that Slot 2 is bad?
    Also, To get the use of both my sticks again, Can I just use the other 2 slots available on my Motherboard?

    If it is a bad slot, then yes, you can use the other two slots. There are no guarantees that it is not a bad module, though. Keep track of which module may be bad. Memtest86+ can throw errors sometimes and not other times for a bad module. It is not an exact science because electronics can be rather finicky. Sometimes, it takes multiple tests to determine a bad module, and sometimes Windows makes a better memory testing tool than any diagnostic because it stresses RAM in more ways than the diagnostics do. That is why I was recommending testing by doing your normal routine in Windows and seeing if the system was stable with different modules in different slots.

    You can try the two modules in the other two slots and see if Windows is stable. If it is not, try removing the suspected bad module and running Windows again to see how it responds.

    Okay, I have moved the 2 Modules to the 2 other slots. Going okay so far, I'm using my computer as I normally would and no crash's.
    If I get no crash's by Monday I will mark this as Solved.
    Thanks for all the work you've done Writhziden, You have been a massive help to me, I'm extremely grateful :)

    Emm, I think I spoke to soon. I got a Blue Screen today after about 10 minutes of my computer being on. I have attached the Dump File. For some reason, I didn't physically see the Blue Screen, The computer just froze for a second and then restarted all on its own, Is this strange?

    Proceed by reading about your crash in Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try


    Also, you may want to try running with just the memory module that did not show any errors. See if it was the module that was causing the errors in Memtest86+ and not the slot.

    I got yet another BSOD, But it didn't give a Dump. I'm not sure why, But here is everything I took down off the screen

    Stop Error: 7E

    Was this with the one suspected good RAM module?


    The crash points to your graphics card drivers or the hardware itself. Bug Check 0x7E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

    Dev Center - Hardware > Learn > Debugging > Windows Debugging > Bug Checks (Blue Screens) > Bug Check Code Reference > Bug Check 0x7E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED said:
    Resolution
    If you are not equipped to debug this problem, you should use some basic troubleshooting techniques.
    • Make sure you have enough disk space.

    • If a driver is identified in the bug check message, disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for driver updates.

    • Try changing video adapters.

    • Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates.

    • Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.

    If you plan to debug this problem, you might find it difficult to obtain a stack trace. Parameter 2 (the exception address) should identify the driver or function that caused this problem.
    If exception code 0x80000003 occurs, a hard-coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but the system was started with the /NODEBUG switch. This problem should rarely occur. If it occurs repeatedly, make sure that a kernel debugger is connected and the system is started with the /DEBUG switch.
    If exception code 0x80000002 occurs, the trap frame supplies additional information.
    If you do not know the specific cause of the exception, consider the following issues:
    • Hardware incompatibility. Make sure that any new hardware that is installed is compatible with the installed version of Windows. For example, you can get information about compatibility with Windows 7 at the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.

    • Faulty device driver or system service. A faulty device driver or system service might be responsible for this error. Hardware issues, such as BIOS incompatibilities, memory conflicts, and IRQ conflicts can also generate this error.

    If a driver is listed by name within the bug check message, disable or remove that driver. Disable or remove any drivers or services that were recently added. If the error occurs during the startup sequence and the system partition is formatted with NTFS file system, you might be able to use Safe Mode to rename or delete the faulty driver. If the driver is used as part of the system startup process in Safe Mode, you must start the computer by using the Recovery Console to access the file.
    If the problem is associated with Win32k.sys, the source of the error might be a third-party remote control program. If such software is installed, you can remove the service by starting the computer by using the Recovery Console and then deleting the offending system service file.
    Check the System Log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the device or driver that is causing bug check 0x7E.
    You can also disable memory caching of the BIOS might to try to resolve the error. You should also run hardware diagnostics, especially the memory scanner, that the system manufacturer supplies. For more information about these procedures, see the owner's manual for your computer.
    The error that generates this message can occur after the first restart during Windows Setup, or after Setup is finished. A possible cause of the error is lack of disk space for installation and system BIOS incompatibilities. For problems during Windows installation that are associated with lack of disk space, reduce the number of files on the target hard disk drive. Check for and delete any temporary files that you do not have to have, Internet cache files, application backup files, and .chk files that contain saved file fragments from disk scans. You can also use another hard disk drive with more free space for the installation. You can resolve BIOS problems by upgrading the system BIOS version.
