GA-X58A-UD3R MOBO Dying?

[nfwego]

I have been having random Blue screens since December. A bunch at the start, now about once a month. Random messages. IRQL not less than or equal, Page file in non paged area, memory management etc... I initially replaced the Memory. No change. The I reformatted the main OS drive. No change. I then ran Memtest on the memory...found some errors, so I RMA'd that. No change. I bought a new hard drive and no change. Then The PC began restarting after post screen on cold boot. I bought a new PSU. and RMA'd my graphics card. I also stress tested my Processor (i7920) no errors found. Since then no restarts and a few blue screens that I thought were related to my antivirus so I changed my antivirus program. Today the restarts at post started again. It gets to the post screen and restarts...did this 3 times before getting to start windows. Is my MOBO dying? SOmeone please help me!

Right well it might just be that you are trying to run the memory on auto settings in the BIOS which is unlikely to work with all slots filled.

Try manually inputting the memory settings adn up the memory voltage to 1.68-1.7v if they normally run at 1.65

It could also be that you memory is still faulty. We see quite a lot of OCZ memory propblems and I don't think their QA is as good as it could be.

Try checking with the latest version of Memtest86+ thoroughly.

Dark, Thanks for replying.  I actually did have the timings set to OCZ reccommended settings for a while and was getting similar results.    What brand of memory do you recomend?

I don't want to dis the manufacturer in question but I wouldn't use them at all now as I just see too many problems involving them. I use the Corsair Dominators or Vengeance modules without any problem usually or failing that Mushkin ( or Excelleram as they are now callled ). Crucial are also good quality.

OK...So I just found out gigabyte approved my RMA.  As long as its under warranty, I want to eliminate the board before dropping more money on 12GB more of Ram.  If after I get the new board I still have issues, New Ram it is.  Thanks guys for all your input...  If anyone else has any other solutions feel free to post.
