Will do that now.
Also, just had a new crash that I've not seen before in the lifetime of this pc, most commonly they are 0x7e but the one I had just now was 0x34 CACHE_MANAGER.
I'm assuming its just another ram/dimm slot related crash.
A failing RAM can cause each and every sort of issue.
So let us concentrate on determining the source of the issue. If still other problems are remaining there, we will properly take care of those ones, too. OK? :)
Alright, sorry for jumping to conclusions i'm just sick of the sight of blue screens haha.
Is there an "acceptable" amount of errors on memtest86+ or is 1 error considered faulty?
I appreciate your help greatly.
Have run memtest86+ again with RAM in the slot closest to the cpu rather than the furthest away (only have 2 dimm slots), the reason I had it furthest away is because the watercooler was very close.
Results after 1 hour was 24 errors this time, rather than the 2700+ I got yesterday in the other slot.
Just out of curiosity, is there any chance that both DIMM slots could be faulty as I only recently purchased the motherboard just before the problems started.
Thanks again for your time.
Crashes are a lot more often now, just had the "failed to start" message about 10 times before it finally booted up for it to then crash again 5 minutes later.
To say how quickly it seems to have deteriorated, does this provide further evidence towards the RAM being the culprit, or is it still 50/50 between RAM and DIMM slots?
Just curious before I dish out a potentially wasteful £70.
Thanks again for your time.
I am sorry, but that is all that I can say in the existing situation.
Your issue is determined, only your action can do any further.
