my computer just blue screens sometimes and repairs itself and then i continue on and also i play dota a steam game a lot and it will just crash so i uninstalled it and put it onto my C drive and it stil happens and i cant figure out what the problem is. how do i determine where the error is bc it could be my motherboard or cpu but they arent overheating or anything ivechecked a ton of stuff alreadfy. I have a i7-6700K and 32 gigs of ram now i did see somewhere it said i have a memory issue but how do i check that and or fix that?
well, start with your Memory. either run MemTest86 or HCI Memtest; I've never run the former, so I can only tell you how to run HCI Memtest
download it from the website, then open Task Manager and check how many threads you have (an i7-6700k has 8 threads I believe); after that, open 8 instances of HCI Memtest, since that's how many threads you should have. now check how much Available memory you have in Task Manager, and divide that by 8
for example, I have 16 threads so I open 16 instances of Memtest. I usually have 23.1gb Available memory on idle, out of my 32gb, so i divide 2310 / 16 and put that result into every Memtest instance. I didn't know how it worked initially so I did both 23.1 / 16 and 2310 / 16, both of which turned up 0 errors so whatever, but i believe 2310/16 is the correct method
let every Memtest run to at least 100%; HCI should catch any errors within the first 10%, and should definitely catch all the big errors by 100%. you can let them run to 400% to try and catch any intermittent errors too
as far as I know when it comes to Memory, if there is even 1 error caught then you should probably replace your Ram as they are likely faulty. I would also recommend running MemTest86, but like I said, idk how to do that, so you'd be better off looking up a vid for that
