Hey there, I recently replaced my CPU cooler and SSD on my PC. After reassembling everything again, I still face blue screens with various errors. When installing, I unplugged RAM and GPU too. I ran SFC scans and reinstalled Windows, but the problem persists. I stress tested the GPU, CPU, RAM, and SSD—everything seemed fine. Now I can't install the latest Windows Update (23H2). If you can help, any advice would be great! Everything worked before I disassembled it. What should I do next? All the details you provided about the system are helpful for troubleshooting.

The second backup file indicates crashes involving fileinfo.sys, FLTMGR.SYS and ntoskrnl.exe. Run a RAM checker such as memtest using a USB drive. Share any error messages you encounter. In BIOS, adjust your CPU clock speed by 200 MHz. Within the control panel, disable fast startup. Install all drivers, including those for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, even if their impact seems minor.

I completed MemTest86 using the provided report. The file indicates a failure, but it doesn’t specify which RAM sticks are faulty. All other steps were followed correctly. Playing CS2 now crashes right after loading into a match—using the updated dump files should help identify the issue.

Only keep one stick of RAM inside the system and rerun Memtest, CS2 won’t function unless you solve the memory issue. Next, repeat the process with the other RAM stick, discard it if it doesn’t work, or request a refund.

Both failed attempts occurred; I even inserted one stick into all four slots (for both sticks), but everything displayed an error. Could this be related to a MOBO problem? What does RMA stand for? Also, if I need to purchase a new set, should I opt for 3600MHz or save money with 3200MHz? Option 1: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3600MHz Desktop Memory (CMK32GX4M2D3600C18). Option 2: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3200MHz Desktop Memory (CMK32GX4M2E3200C16). The price difference is $15 CAD. Edit: 1. Should I run any additional diagnostics before installing the new RAM? I've already tested CPU, GPU, and SSD. Everything seems fine. 2. I borrowed a RAM stick from a friend and installed it. Memtest still reports errors.
