Good morning all,
I would like to share my problems with my setup with you all and see if you have any pointers. At the moment my setup consists of the following components:
After reading many of the posts by others and lots of advice from people on this forum I seem to be missing something. I'm not an expert PC builder but I've never had a machine causing instabilities like this.
At the moment I don't care about overclocking and would like to get the machine to run correctly without BSODs every couple of days.
The BSODs vary from - BAD_POOL_HEADER & INVALID_PAGE_FAULT - people may say check the memory I have tried 2 brands with new stuff added yesterday I also RMA'ed the old stuff.
Here's my settings so far (I guess they need some adjustments?)
Thank you for any help.
