Dropbox gallery

Those are all the BSODs I managed to snap pictures of when my computer had a little fit yesterday. Symptoms before BSOD typically include but are not limited to the USB mouse becoming unresonsive for ~.5 seconds before BSOD during normal activities such as Youtub-ing.

The recent hardware change is the RAM feature in the first picture of the gallery that arrived in a badly beaten envelope via Newegg.

I've ran memtest for a while with no errors; but my computer is stable for a day or two, then will have a fit for about 3 hours, then will work again. I've also have installed the drivers for the mouse from logitech and the usb drivers in hopes of a solution. Any ideas would be helpful but the real reason for this so you can see my BSODs and laugh at them. ;)


I have also never RMA'd before so any advice on that would help if it is the RAM. I bought the RAM on 5/29/11 from Newegg.

That 0x7E looks very familiar to me, I believe I've encountered it before. Try updating your video drivers and if you're using a sapphire card make sure you're getting the drivers from the sapphire website. I believe that's my old GFX card error, or I may be just going crazy here.
 
Found out what it was, RAM had a error so I RMA'd it and have been using my neighbor's extra RAM in the mean time. Haven't had a bsod since.

EDIT: Ignore this I should have finished reading the threat first

Shadow memory in all of my experiences means one of your ram chips might be going bad. I'd suggest pulling them one at a time and seeing if this helps. Ever time I've ever had ram go bad I've always had that blue screen be it 98, ME, XP, Vista haven't had it on 7 yet.

So I got the new set of RAM back from Newegg yesterday; I ran memtest overnight and got no errors.
