Urgently need help cpu and mobo!!

[Lian Warrior]

I have just installed the new twinx 1024 xms pro3200xl memory. i hoped it would enable me to run my 3200 barton at 200x11 multiplier on my A7N8X Deluxe board. I flashed it to 1007 rev a while ago now. i get this blue screen when trying a new install of xp.

 

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

 

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT DETECTED_OR_LESS_EQUAL

 

If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this scren appears again, follow these steps.

 

CHeck to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need.

 

If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable bios memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options, and then select safe mode.

 

Technical information:

 

***STOP: 0X000000D1 (0X00867088, 0X0000000Z, 0X00000000, 0XF76F64C5)

What does this mean. comp then reboots as soon as the xp cd rom setup says starting windows setup.

 

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.. HELP!!

Would up the dimm voltage to 2.8v for starters. Before doing that however, see if it does the same thing at 166Mhz, to verify that its actually the 200mhz bus causing the issue. What board revision is it btw? anything before v2.0 is not really guranteed 200MHz fsb, even with the 1007 BIOS. I've had a similar problem with an older revision however, and BIOS 1004 did the trick to get 200 stable for some odd reason and the client has not reported instability.

set cpu ext freq to 200mhz

multiple sett = 11.0x multiplier AUTO

system performance = Optimal

memory freq = Auto

fsb spread spectrum to 0.50%. tried enabled and disabled!!

 

reboots but sometimes tries to load into windows and sometimes i get black screen asking me to start windows normally or load last good settings that worked.

If i set to cpu ext freq to 166, then the comp boots into windows only if the memory timings are set by speed.

If i set the memory timings to auto i get no boot and a dead comp

fsb spread spectrum to 0.50%. tried enabled and disabled!!

 

I've tried user defining system performance and setting a 100% ratio, still dead system & no boot.

User defined memory timings, even set to aggressive.

what could be my most likely problem out of the mem,cpu,mobo,psu!!!

My bets on the mobo, if you can, test the other components in another system.

Can you tell me the revision of your MB and what do you have the FSB jumper set to?

[Lian Warrior]

The motherboard PCB is rev 2.0

 

The jumper settings are nearest the cpu fan which i think is default 1-2 pins

fsb333/266.

[RAM GUY]

Please make sure that you have set the jumper setting from 1-2 to 2-3, and put the DIMM on slot 2&3 as well and with the latest BIOS for your MB and load Setup/Optimized default settings, and try the following BIOS settings;

TwinX1024 or TwinX512-3200XL

CPU Freq: 200 MHz (400 FSB)

System Performance: User Define

Memory Frequency: 100%

Resulting Frequency: 200 MHz (400 FSB)

Memory Timing: User Define

SDRAM CAS Latency: 2T

SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 2T

SDRAM Row Precharge (tRP): 2T

SDRAM Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 5T

DDR Reference Voltage: 2.8 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!
