Im working o na computer for my cousin who has been having problems with BSOD a lot. so he told me to reinstall vista for him and well during install id get bsod or say system can not complete installation.
I tested hard drive on my desktop by installing vista that way. And ran Memtest 86 and it found 86 errors. He has 2 1gb pc5300 ddr2 667 sticks in there that was jsut put in 2 months ago.
From what i bee nseeing online is that its supposed to run pc2 4200 ddr2 533. does anyone know if pc5300 is able to run or is that the reason for bsod.
I put the newly installed HD back in laptop and as windows vista loading bar shows loading then bam bsod pops up then puter reboots.
