Problems with RAM. BSOD appears.

Hello!

So you are saying  that the BSOD appeared after you put the SD RAM memory in the laptop. It's probably the memory which is causing you these problems. To test if this is the problem, you need to run "memtest86+". It's an application that puts your memory to some test, read and write etc… at the end of those tests, the program will tell you if it's okay or if it has problems. If problems appear, then you should immediately replace the new memory with another one.

"memtest86+" is available as a DOS program, and it is best to use the "Hiren's Boot CD" tools, wich is basically a CD that contains many tools for diagnosing your PC. Burn it, and you will get a bootable CD. Once you boot from hiren's boot CD, you will find "memtest86+" located in "Memory testing tools" section.

Good luck!

Did the problem start after you added the memory module in your system? If it did try to remove the memory module then boot the computer up. If it boots up fine then the problem was caused by your new memory module. It most likely is defective and you need to return it for a refund or an exchange. If the problem still occurs after you removed the new memory module, transfer the original memory module to another slot. If the problem disappears then the problem is with the memory controller and you need to have the motherboard replaced for that issue.
