Hello,
I bought this computer half a year ago and I have had problems with it from the start. After getting 3 new motherboards (last one was a gigabyte the others were from MSI and didn't work) my computer finally started working. However, I've got the feeling something is wrong with either the motherboard or the computer it's memory but i can't pinpoint it, is there software to do this with or any other way of pinpointing the problem? I've ran the memtest86 program and the one from microsoft but it says there is a problem but only says something like there is a memory problem with the computer. Nothing more, no reports or whatsoever.
I really want to solve this problem but I don't know how and what exactly is causing it. My computer runs but occasionally crashes with a bluescreen and it freezes from time to time and then continues after a while but with games this is enough to throw me from the server. It also makes some of my games just crash. If anyone knows the solution please tell me because i'm really fed up with this thing after half a year of trouble and finally realising it has to be one of these things. My specs are the following:
