I currently have Windows Vista Ultimate x64. This was migrated from Vista Premium x86 and is an OEM. The system is about 4-5 years old with the exception of my RAM chips and OS. I have installed this copy after formatting my HDD. As you can see below, I have modified my system from its original form several times. The original wasn't powerful enough for some games, so I added two 2Gb CHIPS, which lead to the update of x64 (as 32 bit only allows a total of 4gb, meaning some of my RAM is not being used... thanks graphics card :/ ) I have been blue screening constantly without any form of pattern. Sometimes when I open Firefox, after clicking on Google link, downloading or just sitting idle. I first thought it was my HDD and it continued to BSOD after reformatting. I did a Disk check and a HDD diagnostic and neither came up with errors. I had stopped the PC from automatically restarting after getting a BSOD so I could read the error and it says "system_service_exception" with the 0x0000003b. So I was researching that and all reports say RAM is the problem. So, I did a memory check on the entire 4GB ram and no errors, i took out one 2GB chip and put it into another laptop and re-ran the test on both machines and still no problems. Now, you are probably asking why I have not checked Event Logs... well, that was the first thing I tried to do "MMC.exe has stopped working"... yey FML...Now, one 2GB chip is in one laptop and the other 2gb chip is in a different one.. neither has BSOD on me since they have been apart on either system.. Attached are all of the requested documents. I also did a CPU and network test as well and neither of them report errors. I know the Brands and the transfer rates are 1mhz apart but I don't think that will cause this to blue screen. The Kingston chip I got about 2 months ago, and the Ramaxel i got back in December of 09. If there is any more information needed please let me know!
