Ichelo Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 i have a (well 2, but only 1 has a problem...) sticks of (sticker says:) value select Corsair VS512MB400 0321023 it has been working fine with my other stick of same thing, 200mhz, 8-4-4-3 are the timings basically what happens, is that after putting it in, it works seemingly fine then windows starts reporting memory errors, then on bootup instead of 1 gig, it finds alot less. exact numbers, i don't remember and didn't write down, i can put it back in and get them for you. i ran memtest86, and it failed with just that stick running 166mhz 8-4-4-3, the other stick passes at 200mhz 7-3-3-2.5... so i think the stick is bad but yeah, if you want i can run memtest86 again with that stick and give you the exact results thanks, -Aaron edit: and i'm running a barton 3000+ on a abit nf7-s rev2 mobo.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 4, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 4, 2004 Can you tell me the CPU FSB speed of your 3000+ processor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 5, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 5, 2004 Please set the memory Frequency at 100% or 1-1 with your CPU and test them again. If you try to run the memory at DDR400 and your CPU at 333 MHz it will cause a bottleneck in the chipset and may generate errors that are not the fault of the memory. CPU Freq: 166 MHz Memory Frequency: 100% Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts Resulting Frequency: 166MHz SDRAM CAS Latency: 2.5T SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3T SDRAM Row Precharge (tRP): 3T SDRAM Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 7T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
