UPDATE: The only update I want to make, since it irks me when people don't close the loop after getting such excellent & friendly help, is that I haven't had a BSOD for, oh, let me see based on my restore point logs... Win+R > systempropertiesprotection The last BSOD was 9/27 at 3am. I swapped the order of the memory, but I doubt that made any difference. I also ran a series of sfc and dism and check-disk commands. The BSOD crash logs implicated fltmgr.sys first, and ntoskrnl.exe next, but if you google them, you'll find 99% bullshit (spam crap for software to "clean up your computer") and barely 1% real technical advice, all of it being to just run the sfc, dism, and check-disk commands & to update drivers. So I did all that. Dunno if anything else has improved, but all the drivers that would update are updated, using Dumo crippleware, Auslogics crippleware, & DriverPack crapware, even as Windows itself never complained about the drivers via: Win+R > verifier Win+R > devmgmt.msc Win+I > Update & Security And worse, Windows refuses to even say that the drivers need updating, so it's hard to blame Windows for that. The machine is almost always running, so there have been plenty of chances for a BSOD, but I'll let you know if/when the next one happens. It's only fair since you spent your valuable time & energy to help me.
