Sorry.
Win some, lose some.
You did everything I would have done.

Could be a number of things.
You might try going into the BIOS and disabling ‘Native SATA Mode’, but that would be a shot in the dark.(I’ve fixed a few BSODs that way though)

Remove your ram and re set it.
Try just one module at a a time to see if it’s stable.

Os use a software Ram tester to see if the RAm is goofed up.

What NoLibZone says in posts 6 and 7, try different RAM.

RAM is always a suspect. Substitution is the only sure way of proving it
To: MeganC
After you check your RAM, check your hard drive. Trust me.

Wow! Thank you EVERYONE for the fast response!
I pulled out the RAM and then plugged them back in one at a time. One of them seems to be causing the problem and I’m going to go by Fry’s later and see if they have it.

Don’t go to Fry’s!! You may as well go to Radio Shack. They sell seconds, and I’ve even seen them resell returned merchandise! Even Best Buy is better.

You ought to have a shop run hardware diagnostics on everything (RAM and motherboard). I have run diags for up to three days before a hardware problem (probably heat-related) was finally revealed.

If you have access to another computer, go to www.crucial.com. They specialize in RAM. After prompting you for a few bits of info about your problem computer, they’ll tell you exactly what you need. And since they specialize in RAM, Crucial probably has a better guarantee than the brick and mortar outlets. Good luck.

Sorry for the lack of link but I’m currently mobile. If the BSOD is generating a dump file you can use a program called “who crashed” that will read and analyze the dump and let you know what the culprit is. This is particularly useful if you’re having funky driver issues.
Not sure if it will help with your current issue but it s a heck of a good program to have in your back pocket.
Good luck.
