Response: Hello RAM Guy, I currently uses MSI 865PE NEO2 with FSB 800, AGP8X, and P4 3.0 HT. My Bios setting are as follow: D.O.T range = Private D.O.T. Mode = CPU + AGP CPU selection = locked DRAM Frequency(MHZ) = Auto Spread Spectrum = disabled adjust AGP/PCI Clock(Mhz) = 66.66/33.33 CPU VCore Adjust = No DDR Power Voltage = 2.75 V I am currently running my system with my old ram and have no problem crashing. Please let me know if this setting for new ram is correct. If so, I will need an RMA number to replace this bad memory. John... :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 2, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 2, 2005 Please make sure you have the latest BIOS installed in your MB and load optimized/optimal default settings, and try the following BIOS settings; Advanced Chipset/DRAM Configuration: Memclock Mode: Manual (400) Bank Interleaving: 4/Enabled Burst Length: 8 SDRAM CAS Latency: 2T SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 2T SDRAM Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 5T SDRAM Row Precharge (tRP): 2T Frequency Voltage Control/Cell Menu: High Performance Mode: Manual Dynamic OverClocking: Disabled Aggressive Timing: Disabled Spread Spectrum: Enabled CPU FSB Clock: 200 DDR Voltage: 2.75/2.8 Volts AGP Voltage: Default *unless you have ATI (9200 or 9600) or NVIDIA (5200 or 5700) then 1.6 Volts suggested!* All other settings should be set to default settings! 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!
