Those errors may also show up as result of faulty RAM.
That was actually the first thing I thought of, Zyndstoff. The RAM I have now is actually fairly new though: it is only 11 months old installed after my other RAM (OCZ) developed faults galore and caused loads of BSODs. OCZ later replaced the 2GB set under warranty and generously sent me new 4GB set instead…very nice too, but I’d already added 4GB of Kingston HyperX so now it is spare ;D Anyhow, unnecessary story over with, I still checked the new Kingston memory out, just in case it has also developed faults, but after an hour or so of checking no problems showed there at all. I checked the new boards for over 4 hours when I installed them, and they showed no problems then either. I’m pretty certain the problem isn’t the memory therefore.
As long as it does not reoccur, don't worry.
Well, yes, fair advice I suppose. Just used to ultra stability of XP and no BSODs without good cause. Whenever there is a BSOD I can usually uncover what has caused it: either something has changed or it's faulting hardware. In this case nothing has changed and hardware checks out okay.
...then you might want to try the Beta 6.0.1044 - you could do that anyway, it's a very stable beta.
Yeah, okay, good idea. I tried the first beta and had a few problems so that's why I'm back with 6.0.1000. But if this latest beta is near final then I'll certainly give it a go.
Thanks.
