hey guys, this is a fairly new computer, maybe 2 months old. I'm getting alot of errors with it for some reason, and it's bluescreening alot when im playing multiple sessions of a game, everquest. It will crash with 2 and 3 people on, but it never has with just 1.
The dumpfile it saves that i get is :
0x1000007f (0x0000000d, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000).
0x1000000a (0x00000000, 0x000000ff, 0x00000000, 0x806e2ea0).
0x1000008e (0xc0000005, 0x00000040, 0xb6807b00, 0x00000000).
Those are the 3 i get, in different orders as it's probably bluescreened 10 times now. Another Error im getting is (this error does not cause a bluescreen it seems, just a box that says windows just recovered from a serious error.


Error code 1000008e, parameter1 c0000005, parameter2 00000040, parameter3 b6807b00, parameter4 00000000.


Error code 10000050, parameter1 b4206d30, parameter2 00000001, parameter3 bf9c692a, parameter4 00000000.

i got that like 10 times in 10 seconds, i had to keep clicking the boxes away.

Please, any help would be greatly appreciated!! alot tell me it can be RAM but i dont have a CD burner to make a disc, so before i go buy it i just wanted to get a few more opinions, Thanks a ton!

All of your errors are good indications of a hardware issue such as RAM. However, your last minidump pointed to Amdk8.sys which is an Athlon processor driver.

Do you have a floppy drive? If you have a floppy you can run MemTest. If you don't have a CD/DVD drive how do you load programs? Online only?

Please list your system specs.

hello, thanks for looking. My computer is 6400 + amd 3.2, 2 gigs of corsair xms2 ram, m2nSLI-deluxe asus mobo. 8800GT graphic card. And i do have a cd ROM but not a CD burner, so i can get music and such off discs. but not make any discs

Do you have a floppy drive? Do you know someone who can burn you MemTest to a CD? It would take no time at all to do so. By the way, burners are cheap.

I also suggest you run ChkDsk and a full harddrive diagnostics.

how can i do that, im kind of computer illiterate i don't know how to do much. The memtest im going to try to get from a friend tomorrow or make my own DVD because i do not have a floppy drive )=

ChkDsk - Go to your Start Menu and find Run. In the box type it as I spelled it. Once in there hit okay.

Harddrive Diagnostic - Your harddrive manufacturer will supply you with a free utility to run a harddrive diagnostics. Go to their website to download and then install. This is a great tool to have. A full diagnostics will take time but well worth it.

i did these and found no errors.
