    Have 2 sticks of 4GB ram in my notebook, but..


    It only shows 7.87GB usable. Moreover, I just got a BSOD that says page fault in non paged area. Could it be the ram issue? Got it twice in like 2 months? Last month and this month.

    What method or program are you using to see your ram?

    You will never get all 8gb's showing up. Heres why : The usable memory may be less than the installed memory on Windows 7-based computers

    As Layback Bear asked you, a screen shot of what it is you're seeing/not seeing will help immensely to give you guidance.

    If you really want help with the BSOD, post a dump for us to look at.

    It is pointing to memory corruption, could be bad ram or memory slot.

    • Where did you buy the 2 sticks you put in?
    • Did you buy matching pairs?
    • Did BSOD's start after installing new ram?
    • Try to re-seat the memory sticks.
    • indianacarnie is correct, all ram has a slight overhead, and you will not see the full amount, read his link.
    • If re-seating the ram doesn't help I would suggest to run: RAM - Test with Memtest86+
    • Test will take a while to run, at least 7 runs.
    • Post test results when finished.
    • Where are your system specs? We need to know what type of machine you have.

    Could not read faulting driver name
    Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiUpdateWsle+2b9 )
