endoftheline Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 ive just recently been getting a lot of errors, bluescreens and random crashes to my desktop when playing full screen games or a random restart while on my desktop about 10 or so in a day. i switched the ram out and tested my system using a stick of RAM from my upstairs computer and have not crashed in 2 days. i had been using the RAM in my machine for approx 1 year and havent had any problems prior to this.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 9, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 9, 2004 Can you tell me the make and model of MB you have along with the CPU speed and its FSB as well? In addition, please tell me the bios settings you have set for both CPU and memory and any performance settings that you may have set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 10, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 10, 2004 I would try and set the Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts and then test the module with http://www.memtest.org. If you do get errors, please follow the link in my signature “I think I have a bad part!” and we will be happy to replace them or it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
