BSOD but sometimes no text, sometimes with STOP codes.

Sometimes when in the middle of playing game, my screen suddenly turns blue without any text displayed. I have to reset to go back. But sometimes I get a STOP message like;

***STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005,0x080533F7D,0cBAD9C99C,0X00000000)

Another one:

***STOP: 0X0000008E (0XC0000005,0XBF87B61C,0XBA756C68,0X00000000)
win32k.sys_Address BF87B61C base at BF800000, DateStamp 3f73195d

Another one:

IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

****STOP: 0X0000000A (0X0008805F,0X000000FF,0X00000000,0X80523912)

I don't think it is a video card temps or cpu temps as I did run the 3DMark03 and did a complete benchmark without any BSOD. Did run the Sisoft Sandra Burn-in for 30 minutes without BSOD.

I'm lost, please help.

 
There could be one of several problems. If you Google the error messages you will get a ton of hits

Try looking at these links for starters.

Rhombus65, thank for your reply. I think I got it. I replaced my mem stick (Kingston HyperX 512MB) and the BSOD and blue screen disappeared, for now. I am still doing some test (memtest86) and see what happens. Thanks again.
