Need help solving dump and crash problem

[Jonathan_King]

First off, it was my RAM that was causing the dumps. That issue was solved by going into the bios and manually setting the RAM voltage to its rated 1.65V.

Second, you'll want to let the win7 experts here know what you are running when your system locks up. Is it during particular applications. In my case, after setting the RAM voltage, it was only when running VLC that my system locked up. I did a clean reinstall of win7 and have avoided using VLC. Since then I haven't encountered a dump.

Thanks for reporting!

What process is running usually shows up in the dumps, that's why we don't ask all the time.
