Hello,
I had major problems with my pc for a while. When I was doing simple things, browsing websites, my screen went black and the rig rebooted. Later I first got a bsod and than it rebooted.
What I have done: re-installed Win7 Pro 64 on my SSD, re-installed Win7 Pro 64 on my on a hdd, run mem86 test, browsed through millions of forums and pulled my hair out....
I also tried to unplug as most of the hardware as possible and put them back in, without any result.
Then I borrowed 4GB of DDR3 from my work, the mobo can handle both DDR2 and 3, and plugged that in, that was it! It never crashed again with this mem.
So I've ordered 8GB of DDR3, 2x Corsair Vengeance 1600-4GB, but the pc wouldn't boot at all with that, it didnt even showed the bios screen.
Brought the mem back to the shop and got 2x Icidu DDR3 1333-4GB kit, but withn that the pc didnt boot either.
When I put the borrowed mem from my wok back in it was all ok again.
Now I have bought 2x 4GB Kingston ValueRam (2x2GB) DDR3 1333MHz CL9 and the pc is working.
Though it is not very stable, it crashes again with a bsod when I do heavy things, unpack large rarfiles or playing games.
I've read somewhere that somebody with the same ram raised the voltage on the mem so i tried that too and it seems to be slightly better, from 1.50v to 158 (i think).
Plz can somebody try to help me out finding a solution for this?
All info is in the attachment, tell me plz if it is not enough.
btw, forgive me for my english, its not my native language.
Grtz, Ronald
