Sorry there for my absense...

No i am not running qt7. As i wrote, the only program i had installed

at that time was Pinnacle 11 ult. My work on the pc is primarily

foto/videoediting. Thats why i bought 8 gb ram.

I wonder if 8 gb is overkill and perhaps more than vista (or the rest

of the setup) can handle. Since my reply i have tried to test the pc

some more. It turned out that the pc didnt work fine at all. It was

pretty unstable to say the least. I ran a sfc /scannow in cmd (u know?)

as someone somewhere suggested and it found damaged files that was

repaired. I have switched arround the ram modules and left only one (2

gb) in the pc to start with. It seemed to work fine, editing and

imagemaking in Pinnacle. No bsod´s or unstability. I tried to install

the game Crysis to try this. It wouldnt start the game up at all. I

tried to add 2 more ram modules in slot 2 and 3 (+ 4gb=6 gb in all), the

pc went beserk, resulting in several different bsod´s. I removed one

module from slot 3 (-2 gb= 4 gb in all), this didnt help, still

different bsod´s. I removed one module from slot 2 (-2 gb= 2 gb in all),

the machine worked great again. This indicated that if the problem was a

bad ram module it would be the module in slot 2. I have now removed this

module and isolated it from the others. I have added the remaining 2

modules so the total ram is 6 gb. It seems to run smoothly however im

not impressed with the speed. I have reinstalled Crysis in the map

Program Files (instead of Program Filesx86 which is the map for programs

made for 32bit os i believe). The game works now, loading incredibly

fast but when i played, the game lacked somewhat to my big surprise.

Anyway thats a hole different ballgame.

The only thing missing at the moment is to try putting in the

presumably bad ram module and see what happens......And test it some

more ofcourse

Ill be back
