Faulty RAM?
Faulty RAM?
Hi everyone.
This week I experienced multiple blue screens with the message: unexpected kernel mode trap! After some checks, I discovered the RAM was faulty. I replaced it today and restarted the PC. Once I ran a MemTest86 test, the first one reported an error: Failed due to many errors. I changed the RAM slots again and restarted. The issue persisted. I then swapped the slots once more, but the computer still wouldn’t start. The DRAM and CPU lights on the motherboard were also illuminated. After another swap to the original position, the problem continued. Anyone know what might be wrong?
Specs:
MSI® MAG B650 Tomahawk WiFi
Kingston® Fury Beast Black DDR5-6000 RAM, CL36 64GB Dual Kit
Corsair RMx Series RM850x
AMD® Ryzen 5 7600X 4.7 GHz AM5
Samsung® 990 PRO NVMe SSD 1 TB
ASUS® Nvidia RTX 5070 OC 12288MB
Hello there, new member! I restarted the PC and changed the slots. Now it won't start, and the DRAM and CPU lights on the motherboard are on. I tried swapping the slots back to their original positions, but the problem persists. The RAM should be in slots A2 and B2. Did you change the RAM while the system was off but connected to a power source with the main switch on? Could you share the BIOS version for your motherboard? Please send the .dmp files so we can review them. Upload them to a place similar to DropBox and provide a link here in this section.
Thank you for your prompt reply. I was on a trip over the weekend and returned now.
The PC is currently turning on again and starting, but no further testing has been done.

There are all .dmp files available there, along with system information if needed.
