    BSOD while idling and browsing


    Hi everyone, I got a computer in feb this year, and for about 2-3 months everything was fine. Since then random bsods started to occur, but i mostly ignored them since I did not get one bsod while in a game. However lately they are occuring a lot more often, mostly when browsing. Also everytime i open my computer everything works so slow for like 2 minutes, it's a freeze but not so much, and when browsing every now and then flash will crash or chrome will stop responding for like a minute or two. I have a feeling the bsods and this are related. My build is:
    Mobo: Gigabyte 970a-ds3p rev 1.0
    CPU: AMD FX-6300 stock
    GPU: Gigabyte R9 270x
    RAM: Corsair vengeance 2x4gb 1600 mhz
    PSU: Sirtec High Power Element Bronze 500 W
    HDD: Toshiba 500GB 7200rpm 32mb
    Drivers are all up to date, memtest runs fine, the mobo has the latest bios. I'm not overclocking anything. I've atached the dmp file, any help is appreciated
    Also, ever since 14.11 beta drivers, the catalyst install thing says that the installation has failed, however when i reboot device manager says that I have the latest driver installed and CCC opens up just fine. No problem in games also. Can this be related to anything?

    The fault is memory corruption. Test your RAM sticks with Memtest

    Alright, so I didn't run memtest 'cause I didn't have a stick at hand and my pc doesn't have a cd-rom, but I changed the slots of the ram and I entered a site in which I know for sure that I would get a bsod('cause everytime I entered it before it would bsod after ~5 minutes) and I let it there for like an hour, no bsod. If it occurs again I'll post, thank you for your help

    I cannot run the test since memtest requires having a dvd reader(which I don't) or a memory stick(which I don't have available at the time), but I did run the windows memory test thing and it came out alright. So for about a week now everytime i startup the pc in works fine for about 10-15 minutes, then I get a bsod with PFN_LIST_CORRUPT, and after that everything works fine until the next time I shut down and open the pc again. It's pretty annoying, I'll upload another dump because it didn't do this before. Everywhere I've read about this it said that the drivers are to blame, but I don't really know how to determine which driver is responsible

    Personally I would start by formatting the hard drive and removing the counterfeit installation of windows you are running and reinstalling a legal copy

    Piracy is not supported here and we will not help you troubleshoot a counterfeit installation
