ntkrnlmp.exe causing blue screen...can't figure out
Been having some BSOD issues lately. Before I did any trouble shooting, I ran memtest, which resulted in several errors. So I dug some old RAM I knew was working, out of storage, and swapped out. It ran fine for about a day, and BSOD'ed again. It's done it 3-4 times in 2 days now. Which is actually less often than before. I haven't tested the "new" RAM, but like I said, I know it was good when I stored it.
I set out on a google quest. I found windbg, and did all that fun stuff, which is how I found out that the culprit is ntkrnlmp.exe....however, I have absolutely no clue what that means, and for the life of me can find anything about it anywhere. I found one thread on here where a guy had a similar problem, with the same file, but his debug info was different.
At any rate, here's my debug info, I hope somebody here can make sense of this, cause I sure cant, lol.

Use !analyze -v to get detailed debugging information.
UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP (7f)
This means a trap occurred in kernel mode, and it's a trap of a kind
that the kernel isn't allowed to have/catch (bound trap) or that
is always instant death (double fault). The first number in the
bugcheck params is the number of the trap (8 = double fault, etc)
Consult an Intel x86 family manual to learn more about what these
traps are. Here is a *portion* of those codes:
If kv shows a taskGate
use .tss on the part before the colon, then kv.
Else if kv shows a trapframe
use .trap on that value
Else
.trap on the appropriate frame will show where the trap was taken
(on x86, this will be the ebp that goes with the procedure KiTrap)
Endif
kb will then show the corrected stack.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000008, EXCEPTION_DOUBLE_FAULT
Arg2: 0000000080050031

Also, I'm aware of forum etiquette, and after my family goes home this weekend, I will look around and see if there is something I can assist someone with. I just thought while I'm busy with family, it would be a good time to wait for a response
