    Hey I'm back.. I ran the verifier for 48 hours, my computer worked flawlessly (even better than with it off.) The next boot after I disable it, I start freezing before I can even log in. I have only gotten one blue screen so far, 'KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED.' I will try to boot in safe mode again to post the dmp. I will edit this message when I am able to.

    Edit: I can't even boot in safe mode. The computer freezes on boot or fails to boot overall. Tried about 10-15 times

    Lets try some bootable tests



    Diagnostic Test

     RAM TEST


    Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums

    Note   Note


    MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 complete passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.

    Addition:
    If errors show up you can stop the test, remove all sticks but 1 and test this single stick in each slot for 8 passes or until errors show, switch sticks and repeat.
    If errors show up and you see them a lot later, no problem, the errors don't affect the test.




    Diagnostics Test

     HDD TEST


    Run SeaTools to check the integrity of your HDD. SeaTools for DOS and Windows - How to Use - Windows 7 Help Forums
    Note   Note
    Do not run SeaTools on an SSD as the results will be invalid.

    Alright. I ran the test 10 times.

    Test 1: 2 sticks in a1 and b1. Froze and restarted computer 1:58 in.
    Test 2: 2 sticks in a2 and b2. Same as test 1.
    Test 3: Stick 1 in a1. Froze just past pass 1.
    Test 4: Stick 2 in a1. Same as stick 1.
    Test 5: Stick 1 in a2. Froze 30 seconds in.
    Test 6: Stick 2 in a2. Same as test 5.
    Test 7: Stick 1 in b1. Passed all 8 with no problems.
    Test 8: Stick 2 in b1. Same as test 7.
    Test 9: Stick 1 in b2. Passed all 8 tests.
    Test 10: Stick 2 in b2. Same.

    I'm assuming it's my motherboard that's the issue then?

    There is a possibility yes, if you can borrow a stick to see if it happens too with the borrowed stick it may confirm it.

    I used my old RAM sticks from my previous build. Confirmed them working prior to the tests just to be sure.

    Test 1: DIMM 1. Got an unexpected error about 10 minutes in (Unexpected Error - CPU halted.)
    Test 2: DIMM 2. Same error about the same time in.
    Test 3: DIMM 3. Passed all 8 tests with no errors.
    Test 4: DIMM 4. Passed all 8 tests with no errors.

    I should also mention that my mb will not even pick up the RAM in slots 1 and 2 now. There is an audible 'click' noise when it is seated properly, but it still could not detect it. (This is for both new and old.)

    That does sound like a motherboard issue as you assumed.
