IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL is one and the other one is MEMORY_MANAGMENT the other one is that Windows is corrupted and needs to shut down and other one jus is blue it doesnt give a reason
Defective memory chips may not be detected by memory checking tools. Some memory checking programs are not adequate tests because they do not test RAM in the same way that Windows uses RAM. Most memory checkers use read/write cycles when scanning memory. Since Windows is executing code from memory, it uses execute cycles. Execute cycles are different from read/write cycles and are more vulnerable to parity errors. It is possible for memory checking programs to find parity errors if the memory is extremely faulty
The only satisfactory way of testing RAM is to test the installed RAM in various configurations. If you have a single module swap it around the slots. If you have a pair of modules run each one singly, swapping between slots; then run them in pairs swapping between pairs of slots. If you have 2 sets of matched modules do not get them mixed up.
You will need to look on the Newegg site for details re. returning faulty goods - we do not have Newegg over here in the UK so I have never dealt with them.
