BSOD Random error messages 2nd fresh install

[Dave76]

I think that crash may have been caused by the RAM, we might come back to it later.

Let me know how the voltage bumps go.

 

[thebfm]

So far so good. Left my machine on while i slept its been on for 8 hours with no crash.

 

[Dave76]

Good news.

Let me know if it's stable tomorrow.

 

[thebfm]

I just had a crash. It mentioned running driver verifier at the top of the screen. I went through the steps to turn that back on. Maybe it was reset when i had to use a repair disk to get windows to boot earlier in the week. That or it was just a generic message that didn't care/check if I already had it going.

 

[thebfm]

I just had a lock up that I had to reset manually and it would't post like before in the orange slots it would just cycle the harddrive and fans every 4-5 seconds i had to split my ram back into a1 b1 to get it to boot.

Probably caused by : hardware ( Rt64win7+9403f ) Realtek RTL8168D/8111D Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC: Update the driver Realtek

Keep us posted

No new crash dump files in the last two zip files.

Take out your USB HUB, connect the wireless keyboard and mouse directly to the back of the computer.
Don't plug in the headset for now.

Did you bump the voltages?

Let's bump the same voltages again.
Set your VDDNB Over Voltage to 1.250v
Set your Memory Over voltage to 1.65v (slightly above is ok)
Leave the DRAM Frequency at 1333MHz and the RAM cards in the orange slots.
Exit & Save Changes.

If you have these voltages set, run memtest86+ again.

Run memtest86+ for 7 full passes, with all RAM cards installed.
Best to run overnight as depending on the amount of RAM you have may take several hours.
If you get any errors you can stop the test and follow the testing procedure in the tutorial.
RAM - Test with Memtest86+

If you get any errors follow the testing procedure in the tutorial.
Take one RAM card out, run Memtest86+ for 7 full passes, if there are no errors, remove that card, put the other card in the other colored slot, run Memtest86+ for 7 full passes, if no errors remove that card and put the other card in a different colored slot that you haven't tested yet.
Continue until all four RAM slots have been tested.
If you get any errors you can stop the test, make note of the slot, report here.
Continue with the other RAM card in a different slot.

You need to test for a bad RAM card and test for a bad RAM slot.
Be sure to note the slot and channel the tests are done with.

Yeah i upped the voltages after you posted that. I will remove my hub and run memtest again.

 

[Dave76]

Sounds good.

Let us know the results.

 

[thebfm]

Memtest came back clean. Needless picture included.

 

[thebfm]

I just had my system freeze, Screen didn't even change/crash I just froze and had to hit the reset button. First time I have had it freeze in a way that there was not a visible crash of some sort.

 

[thebfm]

Another freeze/halt or whatever same as the previous just a lock up where the screen doesnt change at all it just locks and nothing responds.

 

[thebfm]

Another freeze. I was watching a video and when it pause/froze it didn't even hang on a sound like most crashes do. Thoughts?

 

[Dave76]

No new dump files in the last two zip folders.
No info in the logs.

What were you doing when the system froze?

Run this test on your graphics card.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark

 

[thebfm]

Reading message boards with chrome or watching tv with windows media player. I had 2 more the first of those two wouldnt boot i had to move my ram. In oranges it wouldnt boot in a2 b2 it booted then prompted me to reset bios saying overclocking and over voltages failed.


EDIT I Ran that gpu test for a minute with no noticible artifacting. It got mu gpu temp to 77c before i ended it then about 5 seconds later another freeze lockup. And another freeze lock up just sitting on my desktop after a reboot. This must be hardware failure via bios or something sinuster but in way out of my depth here.

 

[Dave76]

Did your re-set the BIOS?

Where is your RAM installed now?

Go to the memtest86+ tutorial and follow the RAM testing procedure.
RAM - Test with Memtest86+

You need to test one RAM card in multiple RAM slots, then test the other card in multiple slots.
If one RAM card has errors, stop the test, move the RAM card to another slot and test again, etc.

We are looking for:
Bad RAM card
Bad motherboard slot
IF one of the RAM channels are not working correctly

Let me know if you have any questions.

I didnt reset the bios. Just tonight i ran a 7 pass memtest with no errors with my ram in a1 a2. Atm they are in b1 b2 because after one of these locks tonight it wouldnt post and i moved ram to oranges. A1b1 and it wouldnt post so i moved them into b1 b2. Also i may have mispoke about what slots a few posts ago i just rechecked my manual to see the right labels this post has the correct info.

I just reset the bios now im going to bed. Should i test the ram per slot as you suggest after i brought and my test from today?

Why 2 mice connected? Use one or the other!!

Keep us posted

 

[Dave76]

So, musical RAM?

This is why you need to run the full memtest86+ as per the tutorial.
There is something causing the RAM to fail, those voltage settings are high enough it should be failing.

The other option is to buy new RAM, which may have the same issue, if it's the motherboard or the CPU IMC.
Your choice, let me know what you would like to do.

 

[thebfm]

The double mice ia because my wireless keyboard came with a mouse that i stopped using but the keyboaed drivers are part of one package i dont know of a way to just have drivers/software for my kb alone.


Typing on ipod sorry for typos. Uninstalled the asus program. Ill check the ram single slot ang go thru each slot tomorrow and go from there. Thanks for the imput guys.
