You could run Memtest with both sticks in to make sure the RAM is good. If it is, then run one stick and try to do a lot of things at the same time, i.e., stress the memory. Usually when you get even random BSODs you're doing certain, e.g., have certain programs running in the background, while doing what ever.

Well I used Microsoft's Memory Diagnostic tool, and it seems I have one bad memory module. I am going to try to RMA soon. Thanks for your help. --------------- "Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody expects of you. Never excuse yourself." -Henry Ward Beecher |

Glad you figured out, too bad. If you bought a set, I'd see about sending both back for a new set. You bought a set for a reason, you wanted them identical, which I guess means coming off the assembly line at the same time |
