CONSTANT BSOD'S HELP!

[Paco]

Hi everyone.

I'm getting random BSOD's and each one has a different message on it.

For example I got the MEMORY_MANAGEMENT one,WORKER_THREAD_RETURNED_AT_BAD_IRQL and many others.

Problem is I have no idea what the cause of this mess could be.

When I got the MEMORY_MANAGEMENT error, I tested the RAM with MemTest and it showed problems.

However, when I tested it the next day,it passed the test with no problems.

So, what do you guys think could be.

Please please help me , this is very frustrating.

 

My specs are:

I7-3770K

8GB VENGEANCE 1600MHZ - 2X4

ASUS P8Z77-V

CORSAIR NEUTRON GTX 120GB SSD

GIGABYTE GTX 660

XFX 650W PRO XXX EDITION

 

This has been happening like a week ago. Another thing I noticed, is that Firefox crashes, and I can't restart it because it crashes again.

 

Hope the forum could help me solve this trouble. Thanks a lot!

you say you ran memtest and it found problems, did you remove the memory module that was giving you issues?

At what point is it BSODing? on boot? when you run a specific program?

Is anything overclocked?

Well, I take it the memory has problems.  I would recommend trying out each module separately or telling the place you got them from or the manufacturer this is happening and see what they say.  You could also go into the BIOS and set the memory clock (XMP) to auto so its not going nuts and stressing your CPU.

Yesterday I ran the test with the 2 modules and it found errors. Then, I removed one module and ran it again with no problems. Today I ran the test once again with the 2 modules with no problems.

Everything stock. I can't tell a specific time, sometimes when I'm booting, sometimes when I try to restart, and sometimes when I'm not doing anithing

It's already  on XMP- auto . When I tested the 2 modules and showed problems, I removed one of them and everything was ok but for a couple of hours, then it BSOD again

Hmmm.  Have you tried google searching that to see if anyone else had a similar issue and fixed it?

try a linux live cd and see if it is crashing...

Wow, ok. So no idea if it's software or hardware yet.

If you run something which is stressful on your PC (try aida64 stability test) does it cause a BSOD instantly?

 

EDIT: In fact, does running a stress test make the BSODs more frequent at all?

MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

 

 

Your memory needs replacing. It's too unstable, stop prolonging it and replace the kit ASAP. If you have random RAM laying around or could borrow, do so and send your kit back to be RMA'd. Memory tends to have lifetime warranties, I suggest you take advantage of it.

Before you toss the ram you could try over volting it just a bit in the bios (add a few tenths of a volt to it) and see if it stabilizes.
