Random BSOD

[chevmaro]

SO I am getting random blue screens with my PC. I currently have ASUS P5Q-E, Q6600 and Curcial Ballistix 2x2gb. I have been running reliably overlcoked to 3.0ghz for the past two years. I replaced the board last year because I wanted a crossfire board. The computer ran reliably for almost a year with the new board. Now I am getting very random blue screens. It started after loading windows 7 and I would often get a screen saying PFN_List_Corrupt. Then it became more then that. I would get very random BSOD and event viewer reported random stuff also. I decided to format and go back to my always reliable windows vista 64. After installing vista I am still getting random blue screens. I have ran prime95 stable and didnt exceed 50C. No errors after 4 hours. Im not really sure where to go from here any ideas?

Q6600 333x9
P5Q-E
Curcial Ballistix 2x2GB 800mhz. Running 4-4-4-12 2.1v
Antec Quattro 1,000
Radeon HD 4870

Did you run prime95 small FFT, or blend? You need to run both, for 24hr.

Also, if you remove your overclock, do the BSODs stop?

What brand/kind of RAM do you have? What is the rated voltage, and what is the current BIOS set voltage?

Edit: Oh, you're running ballistix. They probably went on you. Those have a bad habit of failing.

I'd recommend GSkill RAM, personally.

Well, let me just say this. I have not returned any OCZ ram, But I have RMA'ed one Mushkin, but 6 sets of Gskill, 5 times for the exact same specs (I had multiple computers with the same memory).

That said I just got one more set of Gskill, giving them one more reprieve.
