Hello everyone, I recently built a computer with a GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P motherboard and i have been getting all types of blue screens ranging form irql_not_less_or_equal, driver_irql_not_less_or_equal, PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA and other blue screens.

These happen during a solid 30 minutes of regular use and within 2 minutes of gaming. ive ran memtest86+ with every stick for the past couple of days and ive had no errors. ive also tested them one by one and the same results happen. I swapped out all four sticks of ram to see if the ram was the issue and the ram i swapped it with had the exact same issues ( The ram i swapped it with is Crucial 1GB 240-PIN DIMM 128Mx64 DDR2 CT12864AA667.C8FH)

I also fresh installed windows 7, 4 times which did not fix the problem, and I resorted to windows 10 fresh install which also does not solve the problem.

ive updated all drivers for the motherboard and my gpu and the issues still persists. I only have steam installed and no antivirus (since it is a clean install).

what i have noticed is the fact that windows update always fails to install some drivers including some GPU drivers. this GPU is working though as I pulled it from a completely stable computer.

ive also checked temperatures and nothing seems out of the ordinary either.

I have tried running the computer with only one stick of ram and that didnt work, I also tried 2 sticks and had the same results on every slot of the motherboard.

ive setup optimized defaults on the bios too. and my bios is F5 and the revision of the board is 1.0

Here are my specs:
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P motherboard

Intel CORE 2 QUAD Q9650 (12M Cache, 3.00 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB)

8gb 4x 2GB Kingston DDR2 (KTD-DM8400C6/2G) 1.8v

GTX 650 TI BOOST OC 2GB

I went to 1.18 because i do not have a 1.17 option and it just rebooted in the log in. And when i ran the same game it instantly blue screened with IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Can there still be compatibility issues even if the ram has the requirements to be compatible. Because the ram is ddr2 and 800mhz which is supported by this board. Also is there anyway to test the psu?
