As the title says, i am having problems with it. The PC is a prebuilt and i bougth it 3 weeks ago. It started having problems as soon as i installed windows on it. Ive checked the RAM and switched out the GPU and the problem still occurs. One of my friends said that the CPU is the problem... I have a AMD Athlon X4 970 as a cpu. i want to upgrade as soon as possible but im afraid that it wont be a CPU problem... I can post the dump file if needed!

    Hi,

    If possible, could you post your PC's full configuration here and share the minidump?

    You're using Windows 10, correct?

    Thanks

    The MEMORY_MANAGEMENT blue screen error (stop code 0x0000001A) typically indicates a memory management issue within the system. Since you've already checked the RAM and swapped out the GPU, it’s possible that the problem could be related to other hardware components or software configurations.

    Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue further:

    1. Collect a Memory Dump: If you haven't already, collect a memory dump file when the blue screen occurs. This file can be analyzed to determine the root cause of the issue. You can find guidance on how to collect an OS memory dump file here.
    2. Check for Hardware Issues: Since you mentioned that you suspect the CPU might be the problem, ensure that it is properly seated and that there are no overheating issues. You can also run hardware diagnostics provided by the manufacturer to check for any faults.
    3. Update Drivers: Ensure that all your drivers, especially for the motherboard and chipset, are up to date. Outdated drivers can often lead to compatibility issues that cause blue screens.
    4. Run Memory Diagnostics: Use the Windows Memory Diagnostics tool to test your RAM for errors. You can access this tool by searching for "Memory" in the Control Panel and selecting "Diagnose your computer's memory problems".
    5. Check System Logs: Use the Event Viewer to check for any critical errors that occurred around the time of the blue screen. This can provide additional context about what might be causing the issue.
    6. Consider Software Conflicts: If the problem started after installing certain software, consider uninstalling those applications to see if it resolves the issue.

    If you continue to experience problems, posting the dump file for analysis could provide more insights into the specific cause of the MEMORY_MANAGEMENT error.
