EliteBook being pretty stable sometimes but with BSODs othertimes

[Manolito Mystiq]

Hello everyone,

I've got an

HP EliteBook 8540w
Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit college upgrade (upgraded from Win7 Home 32-Bit OEM)
The PC and its hardware is from October 2010. I upgraded my RAM with 8GB extra to a total of 12GB RAM:

I got several BSODs; usually I get the PFN_LIST_CORRUPT error, but sometimes Memory Management Error, and recently a Registry Error.

I checked my Registry with Wise Registry Cleaner, but no errors were found. Also I ran Windows Memory Diagnostics and it turned out okay a well. I know I should try Mem Test, to be absolutely certain that it's not the new RAM I bought that could be the issue, but I haven't done that as of yet.

Win7 runs with HP Assistant, which sometimes fails to load. I do sometimes get problems running Firefox, and the internet connection can suddenly disconnect, though I haven't got any problems of the latter lately (the Wireless driver seems to fail).

In November these regular BSODs started to arise, and so I formatted my Laptop and reinstalled everything. I think I didn't have any problems for a month, but then it started yet again.

Please help me.

Hi -

The new 2x4 GB RAM is a different speed than the original 2x2 GB. RAM is mis-matched -
2x2 = 1333 MHz
2x4 = 1067 MHz

You have old version AVG installed. Remove it - AVG Removal - sysnative.com - MVP

Reboot upon completion. Install MSE - http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/


I suggest that you RMA the new RAM.

[Manolito Mystiq]

I don't know how to RMA the RAM, so I went to a computer store, and told all about this. He checked the RAM with memtest, and according to him, who I trust, he didn't find any errors. It would be a software issue, according to him.

Back at home, I wiped out my HD partition of windows and its contents, used HP recovery, all which went fine. But then already after letting MSE check the PC, I got my first BSOD (Code 24).

As the shop didn't do a full test of memtest, I decided to do it. Within the hour, I believe withing 20 minutes, I got errors. If he swears he didn't find one, then I don't know how this can happen. I let it run through to the night, but when I woke up, I saw that the test got 'stuck' at 2 hours and 40 or so minutes, reporting error after error, counting over 8 million errors!

One thing I thought could be the problem, is that I plugged it in here, while at the store it ran on the battery. I actually find it weird and not an explainable reason, but it's the only thing that is different from testing it here, and at the store.
... Well, I tested it with version 4, I don't know what the store used, and one other reason I could find is that it's getting very hot here on the table it stands; it might be cooler at the shop.

Anyway, I ran memtest without the modules, but with the memory already installed only, and then I got this strange result:

Is this normal? Or is this a bad thing also? Because, if it is, then it might be the motherboard? Do know, I didn't mention that, that the day I bought these new RAM, I dropped my PC. I can't remember if I had it on or not; the zipper of the sleeve was broken, which caused it to fell out, which was my own fault, as I didn't put all the straps on the case. I didn't let it finish the test, as I couldn't grasp what it was doing anymore.

Thanks.
