Blue Screening and Internet Explorer random crash.
About a week ago I installed another set of 2gb ram. Everything went off without a hitch, ran windows mem test after the first reboot to make sure everything was fine, (newegg doesn't give lemons much but I always check).
Came back clean, so I went online and loaded up youtube, flash continued at least I believe its flash began to crash that specific tab. It might work sometimes others it might not. No real bug report on it, the tab freezes up and restarts...Prior to installing the ram this wasn't a problem whatsoever. And it only happens at random times.
Second problem I've noticed is that, sometimes copying data to a external hd, or loading a game, (I haven't been able to deduce how to replicate the error, it just happens.) my computer will bluescreen and dump crash. Windows report error hasn't pulled up any new information, though when does it really . I'll look around and see if I can find my dump files and upload them, but I'm getting a Paged_Fault_In_Nonpaged_Area. Which to me sounds like a memory problem!
So I loaded up Memtest86 for about 2 hours, no errors. I loaded the ram full on windows, ie loading multiple programs till I hit the 4gb cap and had windows attempting to load data to the hd. No errors. But for some reason on random times I'll crash.
I suspect windows isn't using the 4gb correctly. Its a 64bit platform so I'm not sure why, and prior to the addition of the 2gb extra ram I've had 0 crashs.
I've fliped through google a few pages, and haven't come to any new conclusions as to why I'm crashing, I'll hopefully tonight run Memtest for 12 hours at night see if a long test causes the problem.
Any help is welcome and ty for reading!
