Investigate potential problems with the DIMM slot and locate the issue.
Hello everyone, I’ve switched to AM5 and installed a new RAM, motherboard, and CPU. Here are my current specs: ASROCK 650M PRO RA Ryzen 5 7600X CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB 4800MHZ CL40 stock (6000MHz, CL36 OC). I’m keeping all BIOS settings at default and facing serious issues. After a fresh Windows 11 setup with the new board and a full drive format, I’m still seeing frequent BSODs. The errors point to driver problems or memory faults—things like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, MEMORY_CORRUPTION, ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY. I’ve tried updating drivers and cleaning up, but some apps keep crashing with error code 0xc000005. Running both DIMMs in slot 2+4 causes crashes after a few minutes; using single channel in slot 4 also leads to the same problem. It’s more stable in single-channel slot 2, though I still get BSODs. Booting from slot 1+3 is impossible—the GPU doesn’t power on at all. This suggests a DIMM slot issue, but I’m not sure if it’s exactly that. My concern is whether this will require an expensive RMA, possibly costing over $200 if the supplier finds no fault. I’ve run Memory Diagnostics and SFC/scannow with no issues, and chkdsk found no errors.
