The memory test caused your computer to crash.
In a previous post I asked for help dealing with a BSOD issue related to me unplugging usb devices. I was suggested to re-install windows (which i have not done yet because i need a 2nd computer which i am currently building). I realized I had also only run 1 pass of the windows memory tester. I decided to do 15 passes of the memory test before I went to sleep to see the results in the morning as I have noticed that recently PFN List corruptions (the original bsod code) have occurred outside of usb devices being unplugged and plugged in, as well as games crashing (a search for the event viewer error code "nvlddmkm" error reveals that it could be a number of things including memory timings). This morning i woke up to a frozen memory test. I decided to hit "ESC" to exit the test, and after no response i pressed it a few more times thinking it did not register. Suddenly this blue screen appears. I went to setup options and started up windows, and everything seems fine. I wanted to ask if this really is a windows installation error, or are my memory dims faulty? how would i go about testing which dimms are faulty, or should i RMA both dims? Also would there be any detriment to me running my computer in windows as I am back into windows on the system. my current parts build is : https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JN7Mwc
