Bluescreen D1 Error - Help appreciated.

Hi Guys,

I've had my new Vista 64bit Rig built since Friday just gone. On
Saturday it started bluescreening almost hourly and then all of a sudden
on Sunday evening it was starting to bluescreen one after the other.

Took it into work yesterday, did a full format and started from
scratch. Downloaded all of the latest drivers, full windows update. I
installed Total Medieval War 2 and ramped up the settings to see if that
would cause it to blue screen again (it had originally started to
bluescreen when playing a game, watching a movie etc)

After a while it bluescreened with he IRQL not less or equal. I
downloaded memtest and started the first test with the 4gb RAM (1 *2gb
in each slot), within around 30% of the test completing errors were
brought up. I stopped the test took one of the sticks out and started
the test again. Everything was fine and it passed the test. I then
checked the other stick of RAM which was also fine. I reseated both RAM
sticks into opposite slots that they were in when they failed the test
and tested again. No errors were brought up. So over the past 12 hours
I've had everything re-installed onto the machine and last night it was
running really well. Watching a movie whilst working in Photoshop and
browsing the web it was standing up well.

This morning however I went to start downloading AVG and it blue
screened, nothing else was going on in the background.

I've attached the MiniDump, sysdata.xml and version.txt.

System is a

MSI - 7336 Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 2.80ghz
ATi Radeon - X1600
4gb OCZ 800Mhz RAM.
240gb HDD

Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.6
Locale ID: 2057

Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: d1

BCP2: 0000000000000002
BCP3: 0000000000000000
BCP4: FFFFFA6002A412BE
OS Version: 6_0_6001

Hi,

The fact that your ram keeps failing the tests is the biggest clue. Even
with the slots switched, I suspect if you run the test now it will fail.
Either the ram is faulty, incompatible with the motherboard, or incompatible
with each other. Try different, known-working sticks. If they fail, then RMA
the motherboard.

Like it say's probably a faulty or mismatched RAM or a damaged pagefile. I am
betting on the RAM. One of them could be faulyt or qne or two being mismatched

0x000000D1: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
The system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL that was
too high. The most typical cause is a bad device driver (one that uses improper
addresses). It can also be caused by caused by faulty or mismatched RAM, or a
damaged pagefile.
