I am writing this out of despair really. i am beyond frustrated. this problem came out of the blue, just like that, and it seems no one on the internet has had the same problem. Hear it is, Nearly all my programs are crashing sometimes to a black screen that i need to ctrl-alt-del to get out of other times my programs just crash completly silently without any error messages. i didnt even know what category to post in here i only chose memory because this is my best bet. all my browsers are crashing specially when i open many tabs. i have run the windows memory diagnostic test at boot then i left came back and i saw windows, it probably restarted byitelf but discovered that windows should have leaved me a report and so i went to the Events log and there was nothing maybe i have disabled this service in the past, anyway ran the test again but on basic and there were no problems, i mean if it was a ram problem as big as this ud think widows would catch it i know about the program memtest86 but i dont think it would be that nessesary is there a big difference? i ran out of CDs so i still have to get some for it. i am on windows 7 on 4gb of ram. ATI radeon 5450 HD and AMD Phenom X2 550 CPU. tried clean boot havnt tried crashing it on safemode because usually i need to be surfing and doing stuff that require memory to crash and thats apain in safemode because of the resolution is bad. and ofcourse i scanned with mbam and there was nothing. now i am scared to do a clean install of windows only to find that it still crashes, as i am unsure if its a hardware or sofware problem,, but this is the only option i can think of i didnt try. i tried cleaning case dust, reinstalling the ram cards and the GPU. as of software i updated/uninstalled the ATI drivers, still my broswers crash. any ideas?
