ob1knob Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 I've got one bad stick of VS512MB400 from a pair that I recently purchased. The one stick causes occasional crashes under windows and fails memtest 86 at the same bit location. I've swapped it back and forth with the good stick to verify the failure. The failure follows this one bad stick, independent of the memory slot on the M/B. It's running at 200MHz on a Nforce 4 chipset Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9 M/B.

I tried the module at + 0.2 Volts, but it still fails. I've requested an RMA # online. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
