Alright, so this has been going on for a couple weeks now, and after putting up with random blue screens / program crashes for that long, I've decided to stop being lazy and fix the problem. Basically, at least once per hour, I'll have either a blue screen or a program will crash.

- My overclock is Prime95 stable for 24+ hours, and I even tried underclocking the CPU, still happens.
- I can pass both Memtest86 and the Windows Diagnostic tool in Windows 7 with no errors.
- I know it's not the graphics card, because I already RMAed, and the new card is working fine.
- It happens whether I'm in XP Pro or Windows 7.


Any ideas?

If you get a blue screen, what code is displayed?
Can it be the graphics drivers?
You can also try to put everything at stock and look if that helps.

I doubt it's drivers, it happens in both operating systems. I have set everything to stock settings, that doesn't work either. Typically when I get a blue screen, it's an IRQL_LESS_OR_EQUAL or a System Service Exception.

It may be your RAM try making those timings a little less tight. Try a 5-5-5-15 or something like that.

It sounds like ram trouble, although it is strange memtest couldn’t find any errors. I had the same symptoms you described and it went away when I upped the NB voltage somewhat.
