I have been getting a slew of BSOD's lately. 0x1a, 0x4e, 0x7f, 0x24, etc. A majority seem to be linked to Memory Management and they're almost all happening around browser crashes.
I ran Memtest86 with all 4 sticks of ram installed overnight. It found over 65,000 errors in 4 or 5 of the tests after doing 9 passes.
I then ran Memtest with 1 stick in at a time in the first slot. Each of those 4 tests came back negative with 0 errors.
Am I looking at a bad ram slot? Or maybe a bad chain from where the ram is placed in the slots? How can I diagnose the issue at this point? I've reached my limit of knowledge unfortunately.
Ram: 4 1gb sticks of PC2-6300/6400 DDR2 800mhz
