Corrupt memory issue solved!

Well, I'm back in business (I hope). After suffering inexplicable CTD,s and a couple of BSOD's, I finally ran a memtest confirming that one of my RAM modules was faulty. This was a fairly lengthy process involving testing each Module in the 1st memory slot by itself.I had to remove my aftermarket CPU heatsink and temporarily re instal the factory Intel one due to clearance issues. New RAM installed and tested. Everything including Window's 7 re installed updated and tweaked as per NickN's bible. Everything seems fine so far. This comes on the heels of a premature failure of my EVGA 670FTW GPU which was less than 6 months old. Can a brother catch a break already!! I left many of my payware addons  uninstalled, including REX. Trying to keep only the aircraft I fly on a regular basis installed for now. Real world weather updates seem to be working now in FSX which is a big plus (This was one of the primary reasons I had REX installed). Thanks  for taking the time to read my rambling post. Just had to vent for a bit LOL!
