PC-CHIPS mobo BSODing win32k.sys after memory upgrade*(corsair 512MB
DDR)*. Flashed bios and everything is now well.
- Although this problem seemed staggered, didn't show up until about a week after
the memory upgrade.
This problem definatly seems to be linked to system HARDWARD instability issues.
Most of everyone's problems have been solved by either modifying CMOS settings or
by upgrading/remove RAM modules.
I recommend a step by step approach until the error is resolved.
- Removing any recently installed hardware / software
- Install driver updates for any newly installed hardware
- Loading "optimal settings" in BIOS
- Checking for BIOS updates from your motherboard manufacturer's website, or your
PC manufacturer's website.
Remember, most likely hardware, not software issue. Feel free to call MOBO manufacturers
too. They usually have quarky fixes to strange problems.
