Re: Physical memory 4gb - Installed 8gb

Thanks for your responses. I think I may have the BSOD figured out. Only time will tell. The Gigabyte mother board comes with a utility called GEST (gigabyte Dynamic Energy Saver). The last thing I did yesterday (after all the hardware was disabled) was to un-install this utility. Interestingly I've had no crashes so far. Its never run more than 12 hours without a crash and its been up since yesterday afternoon. I got a little braver and re-enabled the video card and it ran ok for another 4 hours so I added in the on-board lan.

I have Vista 64 installed and have 4 x 2GB ram sticks. All the same. I read something yesterday about needing a remapping utility in the bios to access more than 4gb.. Ever heard of that?? I looked and I didn't see anything like that..
