Hi,
I am getting blue screen error( MEMORY_MANAGEMENT) during windows 7 installation. I have even changed the RAM but still I am getting the same error. I have tested the RAM with MEMTEST 86+, there were no errors.
If I use safe mode during windows 7 setup I am not getting blue screen error. if i boot normally i am getting the same MEMORY_MANAGEMENT BSOD.
Formatted the entire HDD..and loaded optimised defaults in bios, disabled PCI,USB3 .and HPET to 64bit.
My config:
intel core i5 2500k (not overclocked)
Gigabyte P67A-UD3-B3 v1.1 bios f3 and f4 tried both same errors..
4gb corsair CMV4GX3M1A1333C9 ram.
Nvidia gtx 560ti
seagate 500gb.

Are you setting the memory voltage and timings manually ?
Have you tested the memory with memtest one stick at a time for a full ten passes ? this is important to do first, otherwise where groping in the dark

Hi
It would be worth checking for bent pins on the CPU socket also.
Take all the usual anti-static precautions.
Very carefully remove the heatsink and fan. Probably a slight twisting motion is best to release the two as the thermal paste can act like a glue.
Once off remove the CPU taking extreme care both physically and electrically(static) and place somewhere safe.
Make sure that the lighting is very good and even.
Now scrutinise the socket for any pins that are out of alignment, even slightly.
If in any doubt whatsoever take a couple of macro (close up) photos of the socket and post them on here for us to check.
Also look at the bottom of the CPU at the lands (little copper circles) and make sure that there is a mark in each somewhere near the centre.
If there are any missing marks or any of the pins are obviously bent then that is your problem.
Before refitting the CPU clean off all residue of the old thermal paste and the same on the heatsink and then apply a small amount (about the size of a grain of rice) to the centre of the CPU once it is inserted in the socket.
