Windows 7 Crashes Randomly after Unity5 Installation

Hey All.

I have Unity Pro about a month and I've downloaded Unity 5 and installed by morning.

When i use Unity5, windows crashes randomly in 10 to 30 minutes.

It Throws MEMORY_MANAGEMENT error with "classical" blue screen.

I've been using unity4.6 for 1 year and unity5 beta for 2 months on same pc.

I have tried;

- Virus Scan
- Disc Scanning for bad sectors etc.
- Memory Test (Under administrative toos of windows)
- Updated drivers

No solution so far.

Any Suggestions?

Have a Great Day.

 

This is a hardware problem and should be taken to an appropriate forum. The blue screen should display a funky, hexadecimal code, write it down and use Google. There are lots of potential reasons that your RAM fails, some are not even related to RAM and that is why it is best to discuss the problem with hardware specialists... (it can get really strange, BSO on old PC blamed GPU but the actual problem was the PSU)

Unity 5 was just the foot that managed to step on the buried mine

 

Thanks.

Its really strange that i've uninstalled Unity5 and now there is no crashes so far. Thats weird.

 

You have to understand how hardware and software interact to understand why Unity 5 was the first program to trigger this. Unity 5 was just at the right place, at the right time. A victim of circumstances. Removing Unity 5 only removes the symptom, now you need to remove the actual problem and that is something a hardware community can help you with. There is otherwise a risk that you install something different in the future and end up with the same problem again. Also, you can't run Unity 5 until you have solved it

 

A bluescreen does not always mean it's a hardware problem.

 

It is frequently hardware related though. It may be the actual device itself or the driver for it. My last major issue with my computer was the result of a driver bug that existed solely for my graphics card. It took quite some time to find a solution.
