Hi

I seem to regularly get this BSOD, quite often when closing Firefox or just browsing or using Windows Live Mail. I have read that it can be associated with bad RAM and have checked RAM and also replaced with various other sticks I have of the same kind, but the problem is still there. Does anyone have any advice or tips for troubleshooting this? I tried to attached my minidump file from last night's BSOD but the forum says I don't have permission to upload that kind of file..

Any help hugely appreciated. This is starting to drive me mad!

More information about the BSOD please: What does it say on the BSOD screen, type of error etc. ?
The error information given on the BSOD screen is often essential and of great help when trying to narrow down the cause.

The error is always "MEMORY MANAGEMENT". I didn't get a chance to catch any other info, but my event viewer shows:

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x0000001a (0x00041284, 0xfd84c001, 0x0000220b, 0xd3c20000). A dump was saved in: C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP. Report Id: 111710-39811-01

Ok did a bit of research and apparently this BSOD is caused by "A PTE or the working set list is corrupted" so says the Microsoft site. I have no idea what that means, but have tested my memory (with Win 7 memory checker) and came up with no problems. Not sure what to do next.
