Great
Im actually glad you did. since it was done within windows there might be some log entries in event viewer. can you go into event viewer windows log>application tab, them system tab. See if there are any listings about the memory test.
If there isnt anything in event viewer you may want to try pulling all but 2 gigs of ram and re-running the test.
The dump did look like memory but it was too ambiguous to tell. Im not certain about voltage settings in quad cores so I have to pass that to someone who knows but sometimes a slight voltage tweak settle the instability down. Dont know
Now comes the hard part. testing until you isolate the individual component.

Ok so we know you have a memory problem. might just be voltage. I am out of my element here. You can check what the voltages currently are but someone with some overclocking/unvolting can help you more. In the mean time since you have 8 gigs pull 4 and mem test. if ok swap the other 4 gigs into the same slots you just used for test 1. repeat untill you have tested all 8 gigs let us know the results

thanks a lot, i'm running video memory stress test and there is a milion errors found, i'll try pulling out ram after the test.
When I was taught to test memory I was told to test it 1 stick at a time. Why because if you run 2 sticks and it creates errors then you still won't know which stick it is. So I reccommend 1 stick at a time run the test several times |MG| Memtest86 3.5 Download I would also reccomend that you run CPUid to verify that your running the same sticks not so much as manufacturer but timings and voltages CPUID. If purchased at different times and not in sets. Fabe
ok I didn't run with one stick but two stick, but I did all the combination so I could see which stick was broken...but each time I ran the mem test...no problems were found....
i'm a bit confused
It appears that there's a problem with your memory.
Some memory tests test more than just the RAM.
If this is the case with yours, then I'd have to wonder about damage to the VRAM on your video card because of possible overheating due to the inoperative fan.
the thing is that I've had the same BSOD with other videocards....
