Hey OcUK, I need some help.

After finding my PC BSOD'ing or Modern Warfare 2 crashing after a while of gameplay I thought I'd try to find the cause of it all. I memtested one stick of my OCZ Gold 4GB (2x2GB) and it passed 3 times out of 3 runs. Now the second stick, it passed once, then got an error twice after. I am wondering if this is the cause of my BSODs. As the stick getting the error's is in the second slot I'm wondering if the RAM usage fills stick one, and as it tries to access the top end of the second it kills itself because of it.

Also I have just recently set the voltages of it to 2.1V like the RAM says it should be, it was 1.9V which could have been the cause of the crashes. I will check to see if it works crash free soon.

Is there a reason why when trying to run memtest with both sticks in it just restarts my PC 45% into test 1?


The test I get the error on is test number 5. I will upload a pic soon.

Thanks,


Matt
