This one was caused by memory corruption. To test your memory I would download memtestx86, burn it to cd, and run it for 5 passes. Boot from the memtest cd and follow the instructions.

Let us know if you need help

Usual causes: Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus, Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS

Code:

BugCheck 50, {fffffa80a411c81b, 0, fffff80002aa043b, 5}
Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiAgeWorkingSet+41b )

I ran memtest with no errors found. Since then I ve had some others BSODs. I attach minidumps. Please tell me if the cause is the same or there are other problems.

Thanks a lot.

The dmps point to Ntfs.sys, which is a hard drive driver. Please test your drive with one of these tools: HD Diagnostic

Update your storage controllers in Device Manager as well.

How many passes did you run???

RobertTo · 27 May 2010

I ran 7 passes overnight, everything was ok. So I dont understand whats going on. I turn on PC, after 1 minute, my aero glass disappears, sometimes it appears back in 30 minutes....but it isnt stable. I ll check my primary drive.

Thanks

Could also be power supply, heat, or several other things, but the DMPs keep pointing to the same.

Did you check the mobo memory slots one at a time?

Also test your video card. Try this free video stress test: FurMark: Graphics Card Stability and Stress Test, OpenGL Benchmark and GPU Temperature | oZone3D.Net

FurMark Setup:
- If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during setup
- In the Run mode box, select "Stability Test" and "Log GPU Temperature"
Click "Go" to start the test
- Run the test until the GPU temperature maxes out - or until you start having problems (whichever comes first).
- Click "Quit" to exit

RobertTo · 27 May 2010

So, those DMPs point to memory or to hard drive controller? Just want to know where to start:) thanks. Now, the problem seem to be aero mode. It switches off sometimes then it appears and then switches off again and so on....

Jonathan_King · 27 May 2010

Try them all. Hard drive controller is probably fastest,
