Memory Management error
I have a fellow 3ds Max user who is having problems with her computer rig. I helped her make it so i feel responsible for machine fucking up *sad face*.
Every time shes using max, the screen locks up, gives her this weird checker pattern and then crashes on her. On occasion, she'll get a blue screen error that would say MEMORY_MANAGEMENT. I had a similar problem and i went through several computer parts before i finally got to the ram ... the ram passed a lot of memory test, so in my head i figured that the ram was fine ... but it wasn't fine, quite the opposite of fine.
SO, I'm leaning towards Ram memory problems and she should replace that but i wanna know if anyone else ran into this same error and if you fixed it differently than replacing the ram.

As for memtest ... i dunno if i can trust that anymore. I did it to my rig when it was bugging out and it passed all the test. In the end, i ended up replacing all my ram sticks because it was a memory problem BUT ... its worth trying it out in her computer i guess.
