    I have but it was a long time ago. I did notice that the slot 3 has a slightly different part number? Does that seem to be the problem? I had another BSOD now but the problem was in the SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION and the file was win32k.sys. Is that the drivers fault again or not?

    Could be a device driver, a service conflict, your graphics card driver, or memory incompatibility.

    A service conflict is pretty easy to check: Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup

    You're welcome. :)

    Sounds like a good plan. When you disable startup items and services, the only non-Microsoft services and startup items that should be left enabled are those related to avast! antivirus software.

    Hello again. I have disabled all the startup items and services but it still pops up the BSOD. I seems like this happens when the RAM memory is full. Could this be because of the faulty RAM stick or not? What should I try to do now?

    It may not be a faulty module. It could just be that the two Kingston's that have different dates are not compatible with the two Kingston's that have the same dates. You could try removing the RAM from slots 1 and 3 and seeing if the system is stable with the RAM that is currently in slots 2 and 4. You will want to move the RAM around so you can use the RAM from slots 2 and 4 in dual channel mode. Likely, you need to move the RAM from 2 and 4 to 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 to get dual channel capability.

    Ok, I have removed the Compro TV card and I have switched places of the RAM modules the RAM from 2 and 4 is now at 1 and 2 and from 1 and 3 to 3 and 4. I will update you if this has worked.

    I was actually recommending removing the RAM from 1 and 3 from the system entirely, but those steps are still not bad to try out. See how it works, and if you have crashes, remove the RAM that is currently in 3 and 4.

    So far there are no crashes, but I will give it a day or two. Thanks for the help! :)
