Hey everyone, I set up this PC (link: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/rostabunny...iew=W4wyWZ ). From the start I faced issues. First, the motherboard didn’t work right and my screen would freeze when I turned it on, with no fix. That’s been fixed, but now I keep seeing Blue screens of death when starting up. I’m not sure if the RAM speed is wrong for this board. Here’s the motherboard info: https://pg.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B550 PG Velocita/index.us.asp#MemoryMS. The RAM model is: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories...M2A2400C16. Another problem is that changing BIOS settings stops me from booting, and I can’t see anything on the screen unless I reset the CMOS by removing and reinserting the battery. Does this point to a compatibility problem? Any suggestions for motherboards would be great. I’d prefer to keep my existing components if possible. Thanks ahead, Marcus E

From the specifications, it seems the memory issue isn't due to RAM speed. The compatibility lists appear limited, but your RAM operates within acceptable ranges. Could you share the exact error code displayed on the blue screen?

I encountered several issues including kernel security failures, page faults in nonpaged areas, unhandled system thread exceptions, and irql not meeting requirements. The system also showed heap corruption in kernel mode. When I connected my Wi-Fi card, it seemed to resolve the problem temporarily. I ordered a replacement, but the issue persisted even without the card.

Reviewing my initial thoughts, it seems the RAM might be the issue. Consider running memtest on a memory stick for verification.

Hi, I'm having trouble starting up because of the RAM and motherboard combination. I've tried various RAM options, but only one works. Once I get a new motherboard, I'll keep trying; if it doesn't work, I'll return it for repair. Thanks!

I immediately went for an RMA on the RAM. Those blue screens usually point to faulty modules. Since swapping in a new motherboard resolved everything, I’m fairly sure a fresh board won’t let bad RAM function properly.
