Hello. I'll try to explain this as best as possible.
Recently I had to RMA 8Gb of my ram, and I got it today. When I through it in with the other 8gb in my system, it booted straight to a bsod.
Upon inspection, i noticed that the ram I got back was indeed the same model, but a different version. The old version was v2.12, the new is 5.29.
So, I took out the old, put in the new and got another bsod. (page fault in non paged area).
So, I removed the new, put in the old, got the same bsod.
I can boot into safe mode with the old, but nothing else.
Any ideas?
Oh, and the ram is Corsair Vengeance, and my motherboard is an ASRock z68 extreme3 Gen3.
I usually run 16GB, but like I said, I RMAd some, now I'm down to 8, and I can't boot anymore after trying the new...
