HP Pavilion G6
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hey all 🙂

 

My HP Pavilion G6 has been giving me BSODs (0x7A) recently so I ran some checks from the computer diagnostics provided from the HP recovery partition. HD and short memory tests came positive, however extensive memory check failed with the following failure ID: 9GE3L0-6567MK-MFPX01-401003.

 

I also run windows memory diagnostic test and it came positive.

 

Can you help?

You can test this yourself by removing both memory modules.  

 

Put one of them in the soDIMM slot closest to the inside of the notebook and then power on the notebook.  

 

If the notebook boots into Windows and does not exhibit any issues or faiols when testing memory, then  the module that you did not install has issues and must be replaced with one identical to the one that is installed. 

 

If the issue still exists, then replace the installed module with the other one and perform the same test.

Thank you for the help but there's only one ram module installed.

I have another toshiba laptop. Can I temporarily use the ram module from my toshiba laptop to test if the current one is faulty?

What else can I try?

Update: I to swapped the memory module from the lower to the upper slot and re-run extensive check and it passed this time!

OK. 

 

So now you know the issue is caused by a failing memory module.
