BSOD playing Rust, error code 0x0000000a

[luminosity]

I'm 90% sure it's not the ram because with just an A the end (coming from microsoft) it's ussually a software issue.



Also some things i noticed were that firefox would randomly crash like last time my ram went bad.

First time receiving this bsod (happened during rust not a very graphically intense game)


Download for crash dump file:
this was my dump on media fire but i'll upload the SF_DD_MM folder as a zip.


If you need more info to help me post bellow and ill answer it.




I've already run memtest 86 for a couple passes on each stick individually. I'll run it later with every stick in at the same time. I've taken out the 1866 I have for now though.




While I was playing rust I was playing on the "Good" graphics setting and I was in the middle of talking when it cut out.


Here's the advanced debug:

You need to test your RAM DIMM's/motherboard RAM slots for errors.

Run a minimum of 8 consecutive passes, preferably overnight, or until errors occur using MemTest86+.

Use this tutorial to help you use MemTest86+:

It's got to be the mother board. Thanks for the reply. Time to upgrade.

Reason why I think this: I tested all of the ram dimms in one slot of the mobo for a few passes a couple times and none of them showed any error.

 

[Golden]

A few passes is not sufficient....you require a minimum of 8 passes to adequately test the RAM DiMM fully.

I recommend running MemTest86+ overnight just to be sure.

3 passes on each individual stick isn't sufficient? Alright I guess I'll just run it with every stick over night then.

 

[Golden]

No, its not.

Start with all RAM DiMM's inserted as normal, then run MemTest86+. Its only necessary to test individual DiMM's if there are errors in the previous test.

I'll report back with findings in the morning.

ran it for 9 hours. It only did 2 passes. It did get errors though. on pass 1 and pass 2 it got errors on test 8 but that's the only test it got errors on. It totaled in about ~150 errors. I can't remember the exact #. I did run each stick for 2 passes and they didn't show any error. So what does this mean? Should i test each stick more or?

 

[Golden]

The fact that there are errors means that:

• one or more RAM DiMM's are faulty; or

• one or more motherboard RAM slots are faulty; or

• both RAM Dimm's and motherboard slots are faulty

To check, you need to do this:

1. Take 1 RAM DiMM only and install it into motherboard RAM slot #1
2. Run MemTest86+ for a minimum of 8 passes
3. If it passes all tests, then it means that RAM DiMM and motherboard slot are good.
- Now insert that same RAM DiMM into motherboard slot #2, and run MemTest86+ again for a minimum of 8 passes
4. If the test in step 3 fails, then that RAM DiMM is faulty and can be discarded
5. Repeat the same tests for RAM DiMM #2

Alright ill report back with findings in like 2 days then.
