Windows 10: Windows 10 chronic memory read issues

I've been having some memory problems for a while.


A lot of programs have been crashing with errors such as "memory at address 0x00000020 cannot be read" and I've been getting various BSODS that I assume have been caused by the same issue.


I've tried replacing memory boards, taking the CPU apart and cleaning it and even reinstalling windows from scratch. Nothing seems to work.


Memtest86 does not report any errors. Windows tools do not report any errors. Programs are just crashing and I have no idea what is causing it.


The only clue I have is this only seems to happen when the PC is heavily loaded.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
