  • New ram?

    Hello, I've been having lots of bsod's with a variety of messages on a relatively new build. I have tested the hard drives which are fine but memtest86 flagged up around 50 errors for 1 stick and the remaining stick has produced the results shown below. I tried to find the report within windows but could not find it anywhere so took some photos.

    Is any errors too many? Are both sticks bad? Any advice would be gratefully received

    Yes, even 1 error is too many.

    From the screen shots it does look like bad RAM.
    Is a bit strange to have two bad sticks however.
    Is BIOS up to date?
    Are they running a XMP profile? Maybe try them back at the stock speed (no XMP).

      David, thank you for the reply. I checked and they are not running an xmp profile. I did buy them as a matched pair if that makes any difference? I just don't want to go ahead and buy new ram if its the mobo.

      Cheers

        Do you have another PC to test the suspected bad sticks in?
