Random BSOD

[Vos17]

I have been on the forums before, but i don't know exactly where to ask this question.

My computer blue screens randomly sometimes, it has happened when im not even at my computer and its just on my desktop,
and now more recently, while i was playing Dark Souls on the PC.

I got this message from windows after it rebooted

Anyone who can make sense of this for me, it would be greatly appreciated.

If you have McAfee installed then that is probably your problem. Do you get the blue screens in safe mode? If not then you may have a driver problem. Run memtest86 for at least three passes to test the memory.

I just had random blue screens and it seems it was a RAM slot problem.

Do you have an OCZ SSD btw? Or any sandforce SSD for that matter.

Otherwise, it could be drivers, or the GPU or RAM. Run memtest or windows memory diagnostic to check if there's a RAM problem. That info you posted will only make sense to MS engineers. :/

Btw, i believe it is a problem with my RAM. But thats only my thought, and i do have a SSD (Mushkin 256gb)

Any Ideas?

OK WAIT.

MEMORY_MANAGEMENT?

That's identical to what i saw, i think it should be RAM. Roll back any RAM OC and run memtest86 or Windows mem diag.

RAM

You can download Whocrashed HERE and analyze the dump files to get a more thorough explanation of what exactly is causing the issue.

Could be a bad module, socket, IMC, driver, etc...

 

[gamerk316]

0x1A = MEMORY_MANAGEMENT [This one I have memorized]

Almost certianly a RAM problem; run memtest86 and check your RAM for errors.

@RussK1 i don't know if the OP tried it, but thanks for the whocrashed link. Very useful.
