    Hey, recently, I updraded my RAM from 6GB (2x4GB, 2x1GB) to 8GB (4x2GB), because I was mixing DDR2 1000 sticks with DDR2 800 sticks, and wanted to run at around 1000 speeds. Ever since I put in the new G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2 1066 sticks, Windows 7 started having random BSODs. I did a memtest and found errors, so I took out the sticks and ran with 4GB (2 OCZ sticks). Memtest started finding errors with those sticks as well. Now, even if I have the old memory alone or the new memory, or both, I get frequent BSODs, sometimes even failing to boot without a bluescreen. Every error code is different, ranging from 0x01 to 0xc2 to 0x5e to anything. I've reset my BIOS to undo any overclocking and tried both sets of RAMs. I've suspected everything from my RAID 0 setup to Windows 7 becoming corrupted from faulty RAM. What now?
