Supafob Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 My computer has been crashing frequently when there is a lot of memory usage. I left memtest86 running for a while but it ended up crashing my computer. I have had this ram for over a year and there hasnt been such a problem until recently.

Wired Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 Is the memory running @ 166 Mhz or 200 Mhz? What is the version of each stick? How To Read the Memory Label Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supafob Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share Posted May 14, 2005 200mhz Both are v1.2 0350100 0403024 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supafob Posted May 15, 2005 Author Share Posted May 15, 2005 I gave memtest another try and my computer kept crashing on test #4. Also I tried booting up my computer with one stick at a time. My computer would not even boot with 0403024. With 0350100 the computer will make it to windows and crash randomly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Re-test @ 166 Mhz. When you run the CPU's FSB @ 166 Mhz (which is what the 2500+ is supposed to be set to) and the memory @ 200 Mhz, you ar running them asynchronous from each other, which AMD systems do not like.

I re-tested with both ram and fsb at 166mhz and once again my computer crashes at test #4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
