BSOD for Memory Management

[zomboromano]

I just bought a computer refurbished online. I switched over my video card, power supply and ssd. Everything seemed to be working fine. A day later I got one bsod. Then I was noticing the monitor would go out and sleep. When I would wake it up the computer would power on.

Or I would come in later to a message about Windows recovering from an error. So I'm guessing the computer had a bsod and restarted.

I tried removing and reinstalling Windows. I cleaned the and and installed Windows over it and it didn't work. Did the same thing.

Is my ram bad?

And if this issue is somehow fixable what are the steroids I can take to fix it? Because I don't want to ship this computer back. It was a great deal. Not to mention I already sold my old desktop

Please follow the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions and then report back.

I took out the ram and put it back in. Then when I booted it now won't show anything on the monitor which is now the bigger problem.

That was the biggest scare I've had in a long time. In the last 5 years I've bought 3 computers. The most expensive one wouldn't display anything. Found out it was a motherboard issue.

The guy who I bought it from suggested I take the ram out and put it back in, since it did get shipped he said it could have possibly hindered it. Even though it's the simplest thing I didn't fully snap it back in. So I got my computer back up.

I used the SF Diagnostic Tool. Attached is the zip file for it.

PS: Let me just say, I did remove and re-insert the ram. I will test my computer tonight to see if it performs any better.

I appreciate you all!

Just please keep in mind I have wiped my hard drives and installed windows again, and still had the error. While it is possible it is a software error, I'm guessing it's related to something else.

And on another side note. I am experiencing another problem that could possibly be related. Outside of the random blue screen of death, I noticed that my 20-24 pin (20 pin with a 4 pin) that is plugged into the motherboard goes out randomly. When I was working on the computer earlier today it would turn off and on depending on where I moved the cable. I unplugged it, and plugged it back in and it was fine.

After about an hour or so on the computer my computer turned off a minute ago without warning. It wouldn't turn back on. I unplugged it and plugged it in again and it works fine now.

I'm thinking maybe it's a little sensitive, and that when plugged in right it might stay on. We'll see.

Any and all advice based off of my situations help. I'm willing to run whatever tests necessary.

I'm also thinking taking out the ram and putting it back in could possibly help, so we'll see there as well

I would try to put carefully a little metal tejp on it.

Is that another mispell? Lol. And I appreciate all your help

No matter what you said also, I don't think I would understand what you mean, or where to get it

 

[Laith]

Oh i meant tape XD in my contury they say tejp. Got a little bit confused. But i would carefully do that.

Do you mind clarifying? I'm not even sure what that is. I've never used metal tape. Would i gently tape the outsides to the motherboard? Also, any advice for the BSOD? Put my dump files in a previous post

 

[Laith]

Yes, Because you said eariler the pin was losing contact with the motherboard. Thats why i think you should gently tape it. According to the BSOD: I would backup all my data, wipe out the C: and re-install windows. Because ntkrnlmp.sys(Windows Kernel) is causing the problem.

Hmmm. I think I alalready wiped it out once. I booted from my usb , cleaned it and reinstalled Windows. I think it happened once after. Half of these restarts might have been due to the cable.

If that is the problem then you should check your windows installion media. Make a new one. That might be the case.

It has always worked before on older computers. It's a usb stick, and i haven't messed with it or put anything else on it. Can it randomly corrupt like that with nothing five to it?

I have a Windows CD too so I might try that

 

[Laith]

Yea try the CD

 

[zomboromano]

Metal tape. Not sure what that is directly. Would electrical tape work? Just gently around the outside, on the plastic part of the connector?

 

[Laith]

Yes electric tape. How stupid can i be XD
