PFN LIST CORRUPT

[CallMeMysterious]

I built my computer recently and I am getting constant PFN LIST CORRUPT crashes.

It occurs most commonly in games, but occurred once or twice in Chrome and general use.

I think it may be RAM because with XMP enabled (and my ram should support it) it gets worse.

I have tried a lot of stuff, so I will attach a minidump of my last crash. And a few recent ones.

I had a couple of PFN List Corrupt crashes last week, among other BSODs. Turns out I had a RAM module that was on its way out, the errors have completely stopped since removing the bad stick. 

 

If you have multiple sticks of RAM, try removing all but one and test to see if you can trigger a BSOD. For me, I just opened a load of Chrome windows and played some videos as that seemed to cause the crashing pretty quick. Try different combinations of RAM until you can narrow down which stick is causing the crashes. 

 

That's how I solved my issue with it last week, at least. If you can fix it by removing a RAM module, you should return them as DOA if they're still under warranty.

This RAM is relatively new so I don't see why it should be bad. I just want someone to analyze the crashes to see what's wrong

RAM can develop issues at any point. It's perfectly possible for it to be DOA or for an error to show up early in its life.
