BSOD memory manangement

[Jeramathi1992]

I have an asus maximus vii hero with an i7 4770k built about 2 months ago, today when I was playing a game, it crashed.

Iv'e tried swaping my 1 4gb cosair venege module around and still getting the error, also tried windows memory test and it past. So im not sure if its the mobo or ram.

 

Please help thanks.

Download a BSOD viewer so we can see exactly where this issue is. The operating system does memory management, so maybe try running a sfc /scannow from a command prompt.

Let me know.

See if you can find your BSOD logs and paste them into this post. They can be found at C:\Windows\System32 and do a search for a .dmp file. Should be in text document format.

 

Cheers.

Bad memory management, assuming you actually got a warning about it, is typically caused by a memory leak somewhere, a lack of RAM (like you have with only 4GB), or an addressing issue (which can be a one-off). That being said, do what was said above, and post the dump/log/BSOD file so people with the tools to do so, can analyze it, and get more tangible information.

 

*The tools to do so are easy to get just fyi

Thanks for the help, i did memtest86 and it was failing so, I found some old ram to use temporarily until I can get a hold of corsair, just glad its just ram and not something else.
