Windows 7 Blue Screen Crash and Restart

Shane:
Good looks like you found the bad stick of memory :-D

Also you could easily upgrade to more memory, and replace the current sticks. What motherboard do you have, or better yet look on the stick and give me a model number.

If it is a store bought machine let me know which model so I can look up what memory max it has. That way I can point you to either 2 2gb sitcks for 4gb total or 2 4gb sticks for 8gb total, just need to see what the motherboard will support.

Absolutely, here is the information off of the modules (all three are exactly the same)
Kingston 1 GB 1Rx8 PC3-10600U
KTW149-ELD
5105160-1048
9995402-012.A00LF

I have Windows 7 Home Premium which I found has a limit of 16 GB.  Being as though we are a small business the max we would need (or want to spend) would be for 8 GB.

What RAM do you recommend? I have used newegg.com before, is that where I should buy it?

Thanks!

I think I am going to go with the Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model BLS2KIT4G3D1339DS1S00 :

What do you think?

Shane:
This is the one I currently put in my customers computers that I build, you will see a lot of good reviews.

But it is faster memory, so we just have to see if your motherboard will support that speed :wink:

I just wanted to say thanks again for all the help you gave me.  You helped me figure out that I had a RAM stick that had bugs. I removed that stick and used 2/3GB for a couple days waiting for my new memory to arrive and never have had the BSOD. 

I went from 3 GB to 8 GB.  I know that's probably not a lot nowadays but I am still excited.  And my computer doesn't crash! So awesome!

I also ordered 2x4GB sticks for our other computer at work, it was running on only 2 GB.  So all said and done we were successful!

Thanks a lot!

Bryan
