So, it appears my computer that I freshly built back in August literally has a ticking time bomb. It ran fine for the first few months but lately, especially during sc2, I was getting one BSOD after another. It got the point where I couldn't even get into windows without it BSOD on me.
So, I rma'd my Mobo, they sent it back saying nothing wrong with it, and updated the bios for me. Fine, I thought, So i plugged everything back in, reinstalled windows, and whammo, first thing that happens is blue screens!
I removed all the ram and currently running with just 1 stick of 2gb of G.Skill Ripjaw ram. System has been the most stable with just 1 stick of ram then it ever has been (well, since I first put it all together)
However, Ive run a memtest86 with all 4 sticks in for about 15 hours (up to 8 or 9 passes I believe) and it reported not a single error. So I don't get it. I'm literally banging my head on the wall right now.
Is my mobo just not configured properly for 8 gigs of ram? I can't even run 4gb btw, still blue screens. Just 1 stick at a time seems to work. Anyways, heres are the dump files, can anyone interpret what's going on here? Driver? hardware? I'm so dumbfounded atm. I'm tempted to just rma EVERYTHING and start over, lol.
I've attached dxdialog for system specs. Man, ANY help would be greatly appreciated. I just need some direction here, I feel really lost on where to check or what do from here.
