After RAM installation my computer sometimes BSOD's randomly. The ram is fully compatible with my board (ddr3 pc3 10600 with 1333Mhz on a Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3) so I am unsure why it would do this. I thought it would be due to the memory being under strain but it works fine while I play video games but crashes randomly at other times. I have the crash-dump information and the problem codes if anyone can help?

I upgraded from 8GB to 16GB of RAM as my board has a capacity for 32GB. I only started encountering this problem after recently installing two more 4GB sticks. I have run memtest86 with no problems being outlined, and my computer can function for hours without BSODing, so when it does so it seems completely at random. Each stick seems perfectly functional, and I have tested each one in every slot to show that the board works as well.

I have raised voltage allotted to memory from 1.5v to 1.55v as has been suggested for similar cases, my BIOS is also up to date as some people have suggested.

I have tried that but it hasn't worked, the problem is that the issue is so infrequent now that its hard to troubleshoot what works and what doesn't. I have the latest crash dump data here and it seems to suggest an issue with drivers and readable memory:

ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY (be)
An attempt was made to write to readonly memory. The guilty driver is on the
stack trace (and is typically the current instruction pointer).
When possible, the guilty driver's name (Unicode string) is printed on
the bugcheck screen and saved in KiBugCheckDriver.
Arguments:
Arg1: fffff880135040ea, Virtual address for the attempted write.
Arg2: 0000000410ce0121, PTE contents.
Arg3: fffff88009ead2a0, (reserved)
Arg4: 000000000000000b, (reserved)
