BSOD Randomly, tried 2 graphics cards, and reformat

[Spero78]

So i just built this new PC well I upgraded everything from my old one except the hard drives and reformatted and installed x64 Windows 7 because I have 8GB of RAM now

It started getting BSOD right away so I updated some drivers and checked the memory, everything there was okay and it kept getting them, I was using a Radeon HD5670 but now have put my old Nvidia 8600GT back inside the computer because it seems more stable.

Here are all the minidump files, i don't know which is the latest because my system clock went all crazy

I looked at them using BlueScreenViewer and they all appear to be caused by ntoskrnl.exe

System Spec:

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
ASUS Crosshair IV Formula
AMD Phenom II X6 1100T
G.Skill Ripjaw 8GB DDR3 (2 X 4GB) RAM
Sapphire Radeon HD5670 1GB (Currently using Nvidia 8600GT)

It just crashed again while i was trying to run the BSOD Dump & System File Collection exe so I deleted all the other minidumps and ran it again here's the output

Thanks in advance if you can help

Changed to 32bit still having problems, any ideas?

I know that you said that you checked memory. Nonetheless, every dump that I checked (did not check them all) indicates a memory problem
Using memtes86 and making 8 passes and cheking each slot with a know good stick for 8 passes; retest.

Did you mix and match ram?

 

[Spero78]

I ran memtest86 on both sticks together and individually on different slots, they returned millions of errors each time, i read somewhere that increasing the voltage might fix it.

But i tried turning it on this morning, all the fans turned on and the cd drive span up but the screen remained black

 

[richc46]

You have memory problems. That must be corrected. I dont think the voltage will help in this situation.

 

[Spero78]

Will i need a new type of ram or just replacements for the sticks i have?

 

[richc46]

First, you have to decide: Is it the mother board or the ram. If the motherboad you have to get that replaced.
If its the sticks. I would not replace one or two, I would go out and buy all new.
This will help you with the type of RAM that you need

Im fairly sure it wouldent be the motherboard, but i could get both sticks replaced for free with the same make/model RAM or will i need a different brand?

 

[richc46]

I would rely on the test that I gave you in my prior post. Buy what is suggested by that scan.

 

[Spero78]

Increased the voltage to give it a try with no luck, i have returned the ram and am receiving some new Corsair 4GB Vengeance modules tomorrow so we shall see how they work

 

[richc46]

I do wish you luck

 

[Spero78]

Got the new RAM and it still gets errors D:
All the errors are in Test 7 on memtest, there are thousands i cant read any of the numbers because they fly past so fast

Could it be the processor?

Does this with both sticks together, or individually in every slot

 

[richc46]

Must be honest, never had this before. Errors on memtest were always corrected with new ram, unless the problem was with the Motherboard and the slots.
There is the recent thread about a confusing memtest

Are you certain the ram is compatible with the motherboard.

Im gonna return it all, really pissed off with it. Definately the last AMD system I build. Ive read it could be the Cache on the processor too so i have absolutely no idea where the problem lies, changing the voltage on the ram seemed to make the errors less random but still over a million of them
