MuteMode Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 So my PC has been acting very odd lately. I kept getting BSODs saying: Driver_IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. After much help from a friend who used UltraVNC to check out a full memory dump on my computer, he said that it was most likely hardware related. I then decided to run a memtest86+ on my RAM (Corsair 3200C2PRO 512x2 on and AMD 64 Platform at 2.5,3,3,5 latency) and behold quite a few problems were found. Having two sticks I then decided to test each module seperately. Oddly enough both passed seperately. I then proceeded to put them both back in and no errors were found. -EDIT- Also realizing this was happening a lot after shutting down games which seemed odd I ran mbm5 while playing UT2k4 with only one stick and no voltages seemed out of the ordinary. Have yet to try out the other -EDIT2- Also I ran prime95 torture test for 8 hours with nothing found. Ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Try 2.5-3-3-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 28, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 28, 2004 Can you tell me the make and model of MB you have and the CPU speed and its FSB? In addition, please tell me the bios settings you had set for both CPU and memory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuteMode Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 My motherboard is an MSI K8T NEO FIS2R and FSB is set at 200. Everything else is set on auto and what not except the memory which i manually set to 2.5-3-3-6 just to make sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 3, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 3, 2004 Please try and set the Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts and then test the modules one at a time with http://www.memtest.org and lets make sure one is not failing.

MuteMode Posted December 11, 2004 Author Share Posted December 11, 2004 Ok I put voltage at 2.7 and then tested each one with memtest. Both passed. Just blue screened again and ran memtest immediately on next bootup. It found errors. Possibly failing at high temps? This is SO annoying :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Possibly bad memory controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuteMode Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 This possibly stuff sucks :( This bluescreen is now ALWAYS happening when I exit UT2k4 among other times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 13, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 13, 2004 Can you test the modules in another system? That might isolate the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
