Many errors on Memtest86+ AND BSOD

[pkhamidar2com]

Hello, i have recently built my new pc, and i have had 2 problems with the ram so far.

First time was 1 week ago or so, the same day i built and installed windows 7 and everything i got this image.

and i got this same image I THINK, yesterday but it was late at night and my mum called me and asked me and i was too tiered to read it properly but i thing its the same. Or believe so...


So that was 2 BSOD's.


Also because of that yesterday i was told to use memtest86, so i downloaded the memtest86+ version, dont know why... and i run that.

Here are some images.

After pass3 i just thought, no point running any longer, shows how bad this ram is doesnt it...

Anyways should i return it?

Also if i do return it, should i ask for a replacement, or ask for a refund and buy this instead?

because that one will have faster delivery.

thank you Not too sure what to do, im using this pc right now, its running fine, just randomly did that BSOD twice...

lol i know im just waiting for jaqueiths reply about what the hell he means by the msconfig, and to answer the rest of my questions...

Verify and if necessary move the RAM to the BLACK DIMM Slots. As mentioned, I reread your Manual and MSI has them listed backwards in the manual compared to most any other MOBO.

I tend to back-up my data manually and connect to 'another' HDD via SATA HDD or my network. However, I 'know' where all of my data is like my email PST/OST files, etc. So frankly, I have no experience with the built-in backup Apps.

However, the Memtest errors are not related to the any OS problems. Those are MOBO or RAM related.

My feeling some device is defective or something is shorted especially after some of the replacements and OS errors. So try rthe following before re-installing the OS.

You can try Lazyman's Breadboard -
* Disconnect ALL Front Panel & USB Headers ; keep only the PWR & Ground <best> short w/wire.
* Disconnect ALL peripherals including the Keyboard/Mouse
* (1) Stick of RAM in the second DIMM slot from CPU
* Unscrew both the MOBO and PCIe screws

Pull the MOBO away from anything conductive and supported by a towel ; short PWR & Ground to start.

hmm ok... wow this is going to be hard... i hate this why my pc... why...

anyways so the lazymans breadboard, i hate unpacking my pc...

so i have to remove all connectors from the front pannel that came with the case. And only keep the power and ground button? Well my grounding button is broken, i only have power button.

I understand disconnecting keyboard and mouse

So you want me to keep one stick of ram, one dimm slot away from cpu. so basically you want it in the black slot... but you want one black slot between the ram and the cpu yeah?

so basically you want me to take out the mobo from the case, and put it on a towel. wont that break it, like cause a static electricity thing because towel is all fluffy so its full of static, and thats bound to short cut the mobo.

anyways so what am i looking for exactly? What wait for like months and months and see if i dont get a BSOD or something. Because the BSOD only comes every week or so now... not so often. What am i looking for to happen, how do i know what to do? Because the computer works fine now, it just gets a BSOD every week or so, im on it right now...

How do i test, and i still dont understand how to do that msconfig thing... Please can you answer.

That breadboard is the easiest versus removing the entire MOBO from the PC.

When I build I start with a full Breadboard before I install the MOBO, etc into the case -- in the long run it's quicker and easier. If it worked outside the case and not inside the 'mirror' holds where the fault is, and if components fail before being installed I wasted little time.

All just good habits.

sorry, but jaquith, you didnt answer any of my questions, except maybe one.... 😛

please go back to the other posts and if you can, answer the rest. I know your doing this voluntarily but i really need the other questions answerd, i still dont know what im looking for, what the hell do you mean components fail, none of my components fail, if you read my previouse posts you would have read that my pc still works, but i get the occasional bsod...

 

[jaquith]

Please list your questions 1, 2, etc and I'm more than happy to answer

sorry, but jaquith, ,,,

,,, what the hell do you mean components fail, none of my components fail, if you read my previouse posts you would have read that my pc still works, but i get the occasional bsod...

How can you say none of your components fail when your own screenshots of memory test results indicate failure?

questions to jaqueith

1)

Testing:
Run MSCONFIG -> select Diagnostic and reboot ; test
Run MSCONFIG and turn-off all of the Start-up items and uncheck all of the non-Microsoft listed under the Services tab and reboot ; test

a) Do i do msconfig test before or after reinstalling os?
b) You say test... how do i test.... what am i supposed to be doing?


2) Is there anything wrong with my current security software. I only have 1 AV, comodo is a firewall for me, and spywareguard was reccomended by the experts at malwarebytes forums

3)

a) I dont have a breadboard, do i have to buy one of these things?

b) So you want me to basically take out the mobo out of the case and put it on a towel, wont the towel cause static to build up because its all fluffy, thus causing a shorting of the curcuit which could leave me with a very big dead paper weight
c) I dont understand what you mean short pwr, do you mean turn it on?
d) What am i looking for to happen when i do this,
e) do you have any video tutorials, a picture = 1000 words, video = millions of pictures. So plesae, i have no idea what your talking about here.... It makes little sense to me.
f)

That breadboard is the easiest versus removing the entire MOBO from the PC.

your pretty much contradicting yourself here. Before you say to

Pull the MOBO away from anything conductive and supported by a towel

yet then your saying

versus removing the entire MOBO from the PC.

. Your really confusing me here, i have no idea what you mean!

yeah ok but what am i looking for.... i dont understand what im looking for, and when i run the msconfig, how do i test... or does it test automatically test?

 

[pkhamidar2com]

im not stupid i know how to open msconfig, but i just dont understand what im looking for, it says

"Run MSCONFIG -> select Diagnostic and reboot ; test
Run MSCONFIG and turn-off all of the Start-up items and uncheck all of the non-Microsoft listed under the Services tab and reboot ; test "

test.... how do i test, that is what im asking! not how to get into the msconfig, do you understand now?

Then it says turn off all startup *** and crap, and test... HOW DO I TEST! THAT IS WHAT IM ASKING! ahghghghg!

look im just going to wait for jaqueith to reply, see what he says...

And like i said for my first question, i know i dont need a breadboard, just in case i do i asked him, what harm is it going to do to move my mouse a few inches, click on the new tab button, go onto google, type in breadboard, click images, copy and paste, then put it into the post, just incase thats what he meant, its not that hard.

And i dont understand what im supposed to be looking for, whats supposed to happen thats significant to the problem!

do you understand my questions now!?

sorry if i sound angry but its really fustrating... I may not be as "vetran" as you, or as "expert" as jaqueithy but im trying to understand this ***... and its making little sense to me....

when i google lazymans breadboard, this is what comes up
