    BSOD issues + random hard freezing

    Recently wiped my computer to get windows working again, with an oem version. Reinstalled drivers and stuff like that but then i kept getting bsod and random hard freezing to the point where i have to restart my computer in-order to get past the freezing. Did a hard-drive test and it came up with no errors, only one i didnt do is memtest, because computer wouldnt stay on long enough to do it. The memory dump mentions memory_corruption, heres the full file. Specs are

    i5 3570k @ 3.8 came as that
    770 GTX no overclock driver 359.00
    G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB
    CX 750w power supply
    GIGABYTE GA-Z77-DS3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
    Seagate 500gb Black hard drive (dont know the exact specs)

    What did you attempt to use to test the memory? If you use memtest, the computer does not need to boot from anything but a USB stick and can test the memory from there. If it's failing while doing that, it is likely your memory.

    As a quick test, you can remove one stick of RAM(if you have multiples) and see how you run for a while with just the one. If everything goes ok for a while, swap them out and try the other one.

    Sometimes this can be as simple as one of the sticks came a little loose, so just playing with it like this can solve the issue entirely.

    Dont have a usb to test that so i used another version of memtest, that allows you to use it with the computer booted.

    Your computer has no USB ports or you just do not have a USB stick?

    You can also burn it to a CD and boot from that.

    If you are not booting from a USB/CD to test, you can not actually test it properly.

    If you do not have USB ports(highly unlikely), do not have and can not borrow a USB stick from someone or can not burn a CD or know someone who can burn one for you, then you'll have to try what I said and just try the RAM out one stick at a time.
