Intermittant BSOD possibly related to wireless adapter

I've heard of these reports too although I'm running a C3 stepping 965 (currently @ stock although usually it's clocked to 3.8GHz) and have been fine with 4 sticks. Here's my CPU-Z:



Do check the RAM as it was referenced in the dmp file. Sometimes it's not always clear if the bsod is driver or hardware related so a process of elimination ensues until the error is found (usually it's hardware). Another thing to consider is that a RAM slot might be bad but let's see how your results are first..

Not to interrupt or interfere with anything that is being done but just to add another thought as I have had some experience with weird memory issues which I wrote about here http://windows7forums.com/blogs/trou...d-odyssey.html
It seems that unfortunately the extra burden placed on the controller only rears its' ugly head when you are using DDR3 1333 (667Mhz) memory or faster and you are testing with all stick in place. In my case, single sticks our any combination of 3 sticks or less produced no errors, either in memtest or in prime95. DDR3 1066 (533Mhz) or setting 1333 memory to run at 1066 speeds (7, 7, 7, 20) seems to not produce the problem or fix the issue if you dumb down the memory.
Probably should also be noted that since I wrote that particular Blog entry, I have reset my memory from 1066 (533Mhz) back to 1333 (667Mhz) and bumped my memory voltage from 1.5V to 1.6V
No problems since.

Randy also pointed out something I keep forgetting to mention, do you know your running the driver verifier? Try turning it off and see how you go.

Okay, so all the sticks passed one by one, so I'll try upping my NB frequency and NB/CPU volts. I think I have figured out a sure fire way to cause the bsod so hopefully this will fix it.

Not sure if I missed something here or not but who suggested or why have you decided that approach?

Being the retard I am, I didn't realize the thread had reached a second page so I'm just now seeing all these posts.

It is definitely the overburdened C2 IMC, as I can do everything fine with two sticks.

Well it seemed that after searching some forums that overvolting the CPU-NB is the best way to help the overburdened IMC. I only tried going from 1.1 to 1.2 and it didn't seem to work, so I just took out 2 sticks until I figure out what I want to do.

My dimm slots are already running at 1.6v on auto for some reason with 1.5v specced ram but I could try raising that instead. It won't let me go lower I don't think, at least with 4 sticks.

So after seeing trouble's post I might just try to run my ram at 1066 with tighter timings, seems safer than overclocking stuff. Or maybe try bumping my ram to 1.7v but that seems sketchy. I was running the 4 sticks at 1333 8-8-8-24 (instead of specced 1600 9-9-9-24) with 1.6v and still getting problems, but seemingly only in a couple specific scenarios. Also I was able to do 5 passes of memtest86+ with all 4 sticks at those settings with no errors oddly enough.

What do you guys recommend I do? And how do I turn off driver verifier?

Thanks for all the help guys.

To turn off Driver verifier:

1. Open the Start menu, type verifier in search box, then press Enter.

2. Select now Delete existing settings option, then click Finish

As for your RAM, which actual modules are they? Please list specification..

Ok, here's my RAM on newegg. Easier than typing it all out:

Newegg.com - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9Q-16GBRL

If Trouble or someone else sees this, what timings should I set if the RAM is specced for 9-9-9-24 at 1600mhz? I'm assuming trouble was using ram that was 9-9-9-24 at 1333, so could I go lower than 7-7-7-20 at 1066?

I would actually be more interested in seeing any new dump files that have been produced since 07/31/3012 to see what you are getting in respect to stop errors.
If you would like to you can read this article especially the posts from about the middle of the thread to the end.
There is some speculation as to problems regarding that particular RAM on AMD configurations and some suggestions about timings that may help note the command rate of 2T
Did i follow bad advice for getting RAM to run at 1600? - Memory - Motherboards-Memory
