Hdd possible cause of memory management 0x01a BSOD?

[jayden_83]

Recently, and quite suddenly i have started receiving some very odd BSODs. Very vague, very general.. I cant force them to repeat under conditions, and they are utterly random.

Several times a day i keep getting these BSODs, Memory_management. Every time BSOD indicates file ntoskrnl.exe in bluescreenview
However, the last bsod ive gotten is NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM. Bluescreenview indicated that this bsod was caused by ntoskrnl.exe ntfs.sys and fltmgr.sys

My question in, since there are some possible links to pagefile there.. could this be a hard drive failure..Changing ram sticks did nothing..

Thanks for taking the time to read my problem and help me out!

UPDATE: i forgot too add that a lot of programs have been crashing on me without the entire system crashing. Such as firefox, and kerbal space program. The system rarely crashes with them, this problem started the same time the bsod's started. I also reinstalled windows fresh, problem persists.

XFX 680i LT SLI mobo
Ultra 800w PSU
4gb RAM, various brands
3 hard drives (( no raid used ))
550TI GPU
1 Kerbal addict using the keyboard and mouse

Generally this is one of two things, bad motherboard or bad hard drive. Obviously the hard drive is the easier option to replace, so I'd start there. You might want to try ruling out stupid stuff too, like try a new SATA cable and plug into a different port on the motherboard. Occasionally it's something as simple as that.

It turns out it really was ram.. Two sticks of identical make, that have been in use for over a year.. went bad at the same exact time..
