Hi everyone.
Ok, built a new rig a couple of weeks back. Everything seemed ok for the first couple of days, but since then it's started belching out errors and hanging. I'm getting BSOD's MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and I've had an irq_less_than_equal as well. Ill post the full error reports if and when I get another one. I'm getting inconsistent hanging 5-10 minutes after I turn on. Sometimes it recovers, sometimes it completely freezes (caps lock button doesn't even work) . If it recovers, it hangs again sometimes, other times not, there doesn't seem to be any sort of a pattern to it.
System specs:
Case- antec 902
CPU- intel core i7 3770K ivy bridge socket lga1155
Motherboard - Asus p8z77-v lx
Memory- 4x4GB) Corsair Vengeance Blue 1600MHz CL9 DDR3 Dual/Quad Channel Kit
PSU- Corsair gaming series 600w
Gpu- Asus gtx670 factory oc
Now today it's been worse than ever. I'm trying to eliminate possibilities, but I can't help thinking its the memory. I've run the windows 7 memory checker and it came back fine. However, when I have to do a hard reset due to a hang, the chkdsk throws up loads of "orphaned file" errors. It boots up fine again, no pattern to the hangs, it just kicks off when it wants to and for how long it wants to.
Now there are a couple of things I did think, especially because the memory isn't running at its recommended speed (still on 1333mhz). Now I'm a complete newbie when it comes to memory, could this be a problem or is it more likely to be a bad stick? Just put memtest 86 on a disk, gonna try all the sticks and post the results. Any suggestions, at the end of my tether with this?!
