maynard Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 System experienced random lock ups and reboots. I took the system down to minimum configuration: 360 watt power supply Genuine Intel 845PT mobo Pentium P4 1.8GHz ATI Radeon 8500 I alternated 2 sticks of Corsair 256MB PC-2100 #'s found on the sticks: CM64SD256-2100 013607 PC2100-25330-B1 and a TDK CD-R plugged into IDE0 as master so that I could boot from it. BIOS settings are default, there is no CPU overclocking or CAS adjustment available with this board. I booted the system with Ultimate Boot CD V3.0 and ran several passes of Memtest86 and Windows memory diagnostic with no errors. I then switched the DIMMs and tried to boot again, first two times failed with POST giving 3 shorts beeps (first 64K memory failure per Intel's website). third try it booted to Ultimate Boot CD menu. I ran Memtest86 V3.1A and it found 118 errors in less than 2 passes. I then ran Windows Memory Diagnostic and 7 of the 8 tests failed on the first pass. Please issue me an RMA # so I can get this stick swapped. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
