F3-12800CL7D-4GBXM with Asus P8P67 LE Blue Screens
Hi, I'm getting blue screens of death (NTFS.SYS and MEMORY MANAGEMENT) with a set of F3-12800CL7D-4GBXM on an Asus P8P67 LE with an i5-2500k (running at stock speeds). I've upgraded to the latest version of the BIOS (0709).
I was initially running the RAM at stock speeds (7-8-7-24, everything else on "auto") using the XMP profile and the BSODs were occurring. I switched the RAM from the A2 and B2 slots to A1 and B1 slots: the BSODs still occurred. I then tried Memtest 86+ 4.20 and got some errors. I changed the timings to a slightly looser 7-8-8-24 and ran Memtest86+ again and didn't get any errors, so I thought I'd resolved the issue, but I got another BSOD today (computer not under any kind of load, just sitting idle in Windows 7 64bit). I've re-run Memtest86+ again today and didn't get any errors (only left it running for one pass, around 10 minutes), then tested each stick individually for one pass: no errors.
Does anyone have any ideas, this is driving me mad! I'm pretty close to giving up now, but don't want to go through the hassle of an RMA unless I have to, as I don't have any alternative RAM I can use.
Any help appreciated.
