Most likely you have incompatible RAM. I'd suggest buying some that is on the QVL and see if that fixes your issue. RAM is pretty cheap anyway. If that is the case, you can sell your old RAM on eBay or the likes.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

That's probably what we'll end up doing

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

Could it be with DDR5 and DDR3 not working together?

Install one module, boot. See if it works.

So we removed two of the four RAM sticks and for a little while it was working.

Would you please try one ram stick, and verify that it will run stable with just one

Tomorrow my dad and I are going to do this

Have you done this yet??

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

My dad isn't home, but from reading what others have said, it's a fault in the RAM not being compatible with the MoBo. I could take one out now, and run MemTest, but I am more than confident that it's going to come back with errors.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

So I removed the card, Slot A1 and A2 wouldn't take the card. I didn't double check for a tight connection, so I'll go back and do that. However, I have ONE RAM stick in slot B1 and I'm running memtest. So far there are no errors *fingers crossed*

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

UPDATE: Well it got to about 41% done with pass 0, test 6, and it found three errors. My dad thinks that because it's not working in slot A1 that it's a Board problem. But we're going to let the pass go to 2 then swap in another card, till we use them all. If none work in slot A1, we'll contact ASUS support and work out the problem.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

The memory only goes in one direction. You may need to seat it better - be sure to pull the white tabs all the way back, as sometimes they catch the DIMM improperly.

If you get two slots filled, do both A1 and B1 or A2 and B2, as these are the two channels (1 and 2). The colors match, so it's fairly easy to tell how it works.

Since you have run one DIMM with no errors, it could be that you, in fact, have one or more bad modules. What exactly is your RAM part number?


I know when I installed my g.skill, I had to manually set the RAM settings in the BIOS. It was not done properly with the default settings.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

The part no. Isn't listed on the QVL and the card is currently in B1. Of wouldn't read in A1/2 and before with two cards they were in A/B1

The card's part no. is CMZ32GX3M4A1866C9

ASUS BIOS version is 0906

Also it ran fine until test 6 and found 3 errors.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

This is where I think it's a BIOS problem, but I can't find where to change it. On a previous page I posted the BIOS screen pictures, if you could point me in the right direction that'd be great.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

I'll have to look at it more when I get home from work. I spend too much time on CD while I'm here :ahh:

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

Haha nothing wrong with that. There's just going to be a bunch of testing going on over the weekend with my dad home. 4 cards...4 slots... so a lot of possible combinations. We shall see what happens starting with 1 card in A1, B1, A2, B2, and so on.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

EDIT: All of the errors MemTest is finding is on test 6. I'm not sure why.

Also on MemTest:

Tst 6
Pass 0
Failing Address: Error 1: 001508d78d0 Error 2: 001b6cf9b0c
Good: Error 1: 00020000 Error 2: 00800000
Bad: Error 1: 00000000 Error 2: 00000000
Err-Bits: Error 1: 00020000 Error 2: 00800000

Since these errors there haven't been any more. If anyone is good with understanding this, please feel free to interpret it and let me know what they mean lol.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

With another card it immediately gets errors on memtest so it's probably bad.

Re: New computer - Blue Screen Of Death! HELP PLEASE
 

Take a couple of nice sharply focused pictures of that installed card with a good camera and post it here.
