I have 2 sticks of RAM, they are both Kingston HyperX Blue 4Gb
I have 2 sticks of RAM, they are both Kingston HyperX Blue 4Gb
So, you actually have 8 GBs in total?
Again... are both sticks the same model HyperX?
Yes I've all in all 8 Gbs in total and its both the same model. Bought them at the same time, in the same store.
OK, sorry if this sound redundant but at my age I forget things fairly quick
- You did say that you tried taking both sticks of RAM and just working with 1 inserted and the other one out (not on your pc)?
- The you took the one out and placed the second one in and tried again and both times your computer fail?
- If that is the case, then try the following... repeat this method (1 stick of ram at a time) but instead of playing the game, load up your PC at night with software, open the browser, download a few tv shows, open all office products, run the antivirus, play a long HD movie on your CD/DVD, etc, etc, and leave it running all night to see if we can reproduce the same problem.
If the computer does not freeze, then we can safely say that the RAM may not be the culprit here and it may be either the game or the onboard video chipset and/or the video card (sorry can't recall which one you have at the moment ) and we can proceed.
I tried the first to you said, so you want me to try running alot of programs to test my Rams, one at a time :)
Thank you M1GU31, as I stated before... English is not my first Language and I wish I could have explained it as simple as you did from the beginning
@flohr4233... yes, we need to load up your PC to test the RAM and find out if one of the sticks is faulty. But if you try it with both of the sticks then you will never know which one is bad or if both of them are bad.
Again, sorry for not explaining this easily.

Well I already said I tried with one at a time, sorry if it was writing uncorrectly

I understand what you're saying don't worry about that, otherwise I'll say if i don't understand it
Alrightee then... let us know what happened next and explain it very s.l.o.w. so we understand (or pehaps I understand! )
When I tried what you asked me to try with one stick at a time, the same thing happend. Nothing changed, it still restart. And I tried both separated and together, it was not difference :)
