Ravenna_FDM Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 i have 2 sticks of corsair xms pc2700 256mb of ram, when i first got them they worked great. shortly after i started to get random reboots with blue screens from both modules and separately. i also tested both sticks with memtest86 both sticks came back with multiple errors. i have all bios settings at the normal settings. the motherboard is a gigabyte 7nl400 processor is an Athlon 2600+ Barton Core geforcefx 5200. any help or suggestions?

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 3, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 3, 2005 Please try and set the Dim Over Voltage Control to +.2 Volts and then test the modules one at a time with http://www.memtest.org. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 4, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 4, 2005 Please let me know, but 99% of the time upping the voltage will take care of this type of issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenna_FDM Posted February 5, 2005 Author Share Posted February 5, 2005 Update: I tested the memory after upping the volts and singley (badly misspelled) and the stick with the black heatspreader came back with 1882 errors from test 5 on. :(: but the one with the platinum speader is fine after 2 passes! yay :D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 7, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 7, 2005 I would suggest we replace them both so they match. 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...
