Problem with Corsair TWINX1024-3200LLPT 1GB

[hforo]

Ok, so I've had this ram for about a year and a half... it worked fine for a while and then started giving me trouble. I am just now getting around to (hopefully) having it replaced. If I leave the timings set to what they are supposed to be I get random crashes in windows applications all the time. If I turn the timings down I get a lot more stability but not rock solid.

 

When running memtest86+ I get errors in test 3,4, and 5.

 

My system config is as follows:

 

Asus A7N8X-Deluxe

Athlon XP 3000+ Barton (400 fsb)

Corsair TWINX1024-3200LLPT 1GB RAM

 

What should my next steps be?

 

Thank you!

What timings were you using? If different, try these:

 

CAS Latency: 2

RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3

Row Precharge (tRP): 2

Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 6

Memory Voltage: 2.75 volts

Those are the timings I was using, voltage was set to 2.6V, I only have options for 2.6, 2.7, 2.8

 

I will now rerun the tests at 2.7V and see how it goes.

 

Thanks for the quick response :)

 

EDIT: Still getting errors in 3,4,5 @ 2.7V
