    Blue Screen and application crashes after adding new RAM stick


    Hi,


    After installing new RAM stick my Windows keeps closing some apps by itself (Chrome browser for example).

    I also get blue screens of many different types but one of them was memory failure. The RAM sticks are not the same
    but they have the same speed and voltage. BIOS sees them both and correctly shows speed and amount of memory.
    I tried to "make" the PC crash by opening hundred of Chrome tabs but task manager shown that memory is working correctly

    (using 12 out of 16gb so 2 8gb ram sticks must have worked). Unfortunately when I get into games I either get blue screen or

    app crashes. I tested it in League of Legends and Vampyr. I have Asus Z370-p motherboard, i5 8400 and GTX 1060 6gb.

    Is buying 2 exactly the same ram sticks necesarry to solve this issue?


    Thanks for the help in advance.

    :)

    Crash/blue screen

    Hi

    I assume from the title of your post Crash/Blue Screen that the PC has crashed and produced a *BSOD=[Blue Screen Of Death] =Blue Screen; and that the PC recovered from this; if and when you see the Blue Screen write the Stop Code down; recover the PC or use one that is working to access the net and look up the Stop Code.

    nb: You may be able to view this with a [*BlueScreenView] application, google for this.

    Edit Link - Blue screen of death (STOP error) information in dump files.

    Description
    ===========

    BlueScreenView scans all your minidump files created during 'blue screen
    of death' crashes, and displays the information about all crashes in one
    table. For each crash, BlueScreenView displays the minidump filename, the
    date/time of the crash, the basic crash information displayed in the blue
    screen (Bug Check Code and 4 parameters), and the details of the driver
    or module that possibly caused the crash (filename, product name, file
    description, and file version).
    For each crash displayed in the upper pane, you can view the details of
    the device drivers loaded during the crash in the lower pane.
    BlueScreenView also mark the drivers that their addresses found in the
    crash stack, so you can easily locate the suspected drivers that possibly
    caused the crash.
