Hi everyone,

would like to ask your help... I have a PC which seems to restart on a BSOD, I have check the logs and can see it has a history of BSOD's but they seem to be off differant stop codes (i will list these below in a min) I suspect it maybe a RAM issue but would like to ask if maybe someone could shine some more light on this for me.

ok, so here is the stop messeges from this month,
have a look and tell me what you think :

With your error codes your errors can be due to several causes. I suggest running MemTest on your RAM for a minimum of 7 passes. Whether you run this test from a floppy or a CD/DVD-ROM drive make sure you place it as first bootable in your BIOS.

If you have any errors you have corrupted memory that must be replaced. I would also suggest updating your drivers.
