so i format my HDD - reinstall windows because i been getting so many BSOD's. Vista installs fine and such and then on the first boot of vista for 1st time when it asks me to enter new username i get a BSOD labled "Memory_management". I not even got to desktop at this stage so i ran memtest and got a few errors, ran it again to make sure and no errors were found this time. Tested each module 1 by 1 and no errors.

i resinstalled vista 8 times in last week because i think i know what was causing my BSODS previously (if it wasnt the ram) it was my RALKIN driver for my f5d7050 belkin adapter. Everything i start the installation on clean vista it will stop and then i will leave it for ever but it wont progress. If i switch off my pc and try it again then i will start the installation again and then i will start getting BSODS (Ralkin drivers are the only ones i can use also).


CURRENTLY after my last bsod caused by my adapter drivers i think i havent been able to boot because of "award bios boot block" tried to flash bios and such but it didnt work so gunna send my mobo back.

Still u am not sure if it is my Memory that i helping cause my BSODS or these ralink drivers, i think they both seem to play a part but i will try to avoid the RALINK drivers with the corrupted install and still get the BSODS.

What do i do?!


sorry its so LONG
 
i have four and i dont know which one to send back :S

i have 3 ones that looks the same and 1 that looks different. But there all the same thing.


see i bought 2 GB - One broke so i got a new one and it looked different.

then i bought a new one and those two looked like my replacement.

probs no difference but i dunno which one to send :S

any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
 
when i do test them by them selves i get no errors back from memtest 86.

and i ended up with 1 odd one because:

BOUGHT 2 BALIXTIX RAM (2 double sided sticks)

ONE BROKE SO SENT ONE BACK and they sent me back a non-double sided stick.

then bought an extra 2GB ram which were not double sided
 
how can i find the faulty module(s)?

I guess i could do a long series of tests over 4 days - so far i havent been able to last for more than 1 day with out a bsod. Will do that soon.

waiting for my mobo to get returned first :( my ga-p35-ds3r broke :(
