I upgraded my PC about a year ago and have recently faced various Windows 10 BSOD issues. The problems include irql not less or equal crashes, pfn list corruption crashes, kernel security check failures, page faults in non-paged areas, and memory management errors. I’ve reset the GPU drivers with ddu, runmed RAM tests, scanned for viruses/malware, and even performed a full system reinstall. I reviewed the crash logs carefully, focusing on recent entries with the red exclamation mark, but found no relevant crash information. The incidents are rare, occurring only occasionally. I’m seeking advice or solutions to resolve this matter.

What are your hardware details? The issues suggest a RAM problem. Are XMP settings active? Which DIMM locations are present on the motherboard?

Missed the initial details about specs. I’m using an MSI X570 MEGA UNIFY board with a 5950x, 3080 Ti, and 32GB RAM. XMP is enabled, but I’m unsure which RAM model is most important—please confirm and let me know the slot locations.

Just arrived home and verified I'm running the essential ballistix. I also noticed the RAM was inserted into slots DIMMA2 and DIMMB2. I'll replace them now, unsure if that's why the issues occurred but hoping it resolved them.

They were flipped and after skipping posts and further investigation, it turned out they fit correctly in the B channel first. Still, switching them to the A channel didn’t seem to make a difference.

I probably found the solution. After reinserting the RAM into the proper slots, I received an output, but the BIOS reported a memory overclock failure. It reminded me of a previous overclock that was advertised to work with any RAM type. I intended to revert it back to standard timing afterward, but checking the stock RAM specifications confirmed I had left the RAM overclocked by mistake. That could have definitely caused the issue.
