Back to BSOD
Hey,
So I posted here a while ago:

Having thinking I ironed out all problems relating to those BSOD episodes. I ran MemTest for 20 passes overnight and found 1 failing address around 950mb. So, I unplugged one of my 512mb Ram cards.
(long story short, I did something wrong and my PC wouldn't start up - a Startup Repair could not automatically fix the problem... so with my PC opened up, I resorted to cleaning each individual component... the amount of fluff that came out... haha)
Somehow, it decided to start working again. And I hadn't had a BSOD for a few days (since last posting, so 4).
Please could you take a look and confirm what caused this BSOD - I have replaced the RAM that was in when the BSOD happened with the one I had removed earlier just as a precaution that I had removed the RAM without the error.
The plus side is, they are now a lot less frequent. I am almost happy with a crash once every four days as opposed to 4 to 8 crashes in one day! But, regardless, I still want a crash-free computer as I do a lot of work with 3D Studio Max and game mod software - I simply don't quick-save enough :) - and losing a lot of progress due to a Bluescreen really does annoy me!
