pepiman Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Sooooo i've been having constant STOP and reboots ... like CONSTANT as in every minute I cleared my CMOS (this was after re-installing countless drivers and downgrading a bunch of things including the BIOS without fixing anything) and here's the thing My Ram (XMS PRO C2 PC3200 DDR400 512MB X 2) is rated at 2.5-3-3-6 1T according to Corsair but it won't run that anymore without crashing my computer this is obviously bad ram .... question is ... to return them, i'll need RAM right away (before sending them back to Corsair) because I use my computer every single day for work soooo... Does Corsair send RAM first and receive the bad RAM later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wired Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Are they a TwinX pack? If not, what is the revision of each stick? How To Read the Memory Label Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 14, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 14, 2005 You might try slots 1-3 or 2-3 and see if that helps as well. If not 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...
