Hello, I've been trying to troubleshoot this problem all day and so far nothing has helped. I'm relatively new to the hardware side of computers, so I may of missed something. Let me go into my problem before I go any further.
About 1 month ago, I installed 2 2gb sticks of ddr2 Ram into my computer. It has ran fine since then. Suddenly, 2 days ago I started getting random BSoD. It says Machine_Check_Key and the error is 0x0000009c. There is no pattern to it, it will happen whether I'm playing a game, chatting, or the computer is just idleing. I've tried everything I could think of to fix it or at least discover the problem. I have run Memtest+86, no errors. Checked the seating of my RAM, run a spyware and virus checker just in case, checked the seating of my video card, I've tried every stick of RAM by itself (I have 4 sticks, 2 512 MB and 2 2GB) I've checked the temperature, I've checked all the connection in my computer. I have even updated all the drivers just to be sure. I've tried dusting out the inside, and using a previous restore point. I'm at a complete loss now. Two things I haven't done, because I can't, is try a different video card and reinstall windows. I don't have a spare video card and I don't have an XP CD.
My specs are:
CPU: Pentium D 945 3.4 GHZ
MB: Asus P5LD2-VM (P5B-VM DO)
RAM: 2 Visionman 512MB DDR2, 2 Corsair 2GB DDR2
Video Card: NVidia GeForce 7300 GS (512 MB)
Sound Card: No Clue
PSU: Hec WIN 550 UB
OS: Windows XP 64 Bit Edition
I'm not overclocking and I'm using SP2.
Sorry for putting the attachment in a zip file, but the .dmp files were too big for the forum limits.
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
