    BSOD memory management during gaming


    I got this computer a 2 years ago and have been getting BSOD when gaming and has happened from various games. I have ran memtest numerous times with moving the sticks to different slots with no errors. When gaming I will get memory error,memory management, bad pool header BSOD at random times.

    Did chkdisk with no errors and other checks with no errors. Updated drivers.

    I have attached my debug zip and results minitoolbox with last 10 event viewer log, installed programs, users partitions, and memory size options checked.

    Is there anything else I need to post to help me fix this problem I've had?

    There aren't any .dmp files in your attachment. These are required to analyse the BSODs.

    Follow these steps:

    1. Configure Windows to create minidumps:
    Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD

    2. Set the paging file on C: to be the same size as the physically installed RAM:
    Virtual Memory Paging File - Change

    3. Set the Windows Error Reporting service to MANUAL:
    Services - Start or Disable



    4. Test to see that dump files are created:
    - Open Windows Task Manager
    - Navigate to the Processes tab
    - Right-click on explorer.exe, and click Create Dump File



    - Note the location of the saved file



    - Check that location and confirm that explorer.dmp exists

    Here is a compressed zip with a few crash dumps. I already had all those settings setup. Hope these are what is needed.

    Those dumps don't contain any information that we can use, were they generated during a BSOD?

    It would also be helpful if you updated your system specs to include what and how much memory your system has.

    If you ever really want to know what your system specs here is a great little free program Speccy.
    Here is a tutorial by Kari to explain.

    I use CPU-Z and CPUID hardware monitor. Also everything about my specs should be updated now. Anything else I need to post?
