I have a one-month old system running Vista Home Premium, based on an Intel Core Duo E6750 processor, a Gigabyte P35-DS3R motherboard, and 4 Gb of Corsair PC6400 memory. In the last couple of weeks I have started to experience the occasional blue screen crash when doing something demanding such as video encoding. If I run the Vista memory diagnostic tool immediately after such a crash, it usually tells me that there is a memory fault. I then go through the process of trying combinations of memory sticks in combinantions of slots without being able to reproduce an error. The system then stays stable for a few days until the problem rears its head again and I repeat the same futile attempts at trying to identify the rogue stick or slot.
It's now driving me mad! I'd love to know if there is a better way of homing in on the problem, or if I am just going to have to accept that I need to live with this intermittent problem until something more conclusive happens.
