    BSODs Constantly, Out of Ideas, too many error codes to count


    Alright, I've been fighting this fight for three months at least. I've been getting different BDOD messages, most of them MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, but few are BAD_POOL_HEADER and some others. I can't figure out what the problem is. I have run chkdsk at least 10 times, all finding nothing. The BSODs are quite random, and occasionally come in pairs of two, in which there is a blue screen, I restart, then there is another, then everything is fine for the next hour. I do not suspect a virus. I have scanned with Malwarebytes, MSE, and even used a trial of AVG before I suspected it was causing the BSODs. I've grown tired of this problem, and am now turning to the forums. Is there any additional information needed to answer my question?

    Alright, I have found the issue, and it was not what I expected at all. My second RAM stick has been faulty for quite a long time, apparently. It has been not only causing the blue screens, but has been crashing my games and corrupting downloads as well. The memtest showed me that the RAM stick was and is acting up. Guess it's down to 4 GBs for the next week. Thank you, though, I'm glad this problem is finally over with.
