Ender9087 Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 I have a corsair xms platinum series module that has gone bad. It is a 512mb, 333mhz, pc2700 module with id #0349065-1. I'm using it with a siempron 2.6ghz processor, a asus a7v8x-x motherboard, and a gforce ti4600 graphics card. I ran memtest 86 on it and it has multiple errors. I'd like an RMA to get it replaced as soon as possible. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 19, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 19, 2004 Please make sure that you have the latest BIOS for your MB and load Setup/Optimized default settings, and try the following BIOS settings; CMX512-2700C2 CPU Freq: 166 MHz (333 FSB) System Performance: User Define Memory Frequency: 100% Resulting Frequency: 166 MHz (333 FSB) Memory Timing: User Define SDRAM CAS Latency: 2.5T SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3T SDRAM Row Precharge (tRP): 3T SDRAM Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 6T DDR Reference Voltage: 2.7 Volts AGP Voltage: Default *unless you have ATI (9200 or 9600) or NVIDIA (5200 or 5700) then 1.6 Volts suggested!* All other settings are motherboards defaults Then please test them one at a time with http://www.memtest.org and let’s make sure it's not some other issue! I would run the test for at least 2-3 passes to be sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ender9087 Posted November 22, 2004 Author Share Posted November 22, 2004 I tried using the settings you suggested and ran memtest. I still got multiple errors, I'm pretty sure this ram stick is toast. Can I have an RMA? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
