static1626861647 Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Hi, A couple of weeks ago I started having extensive lock-ups, even on clean HDD's. After having tests run on both HDD's, both sticks of RAM, and resetting the Bio's, I found that the problem was with the RAM. One stick would not post and the other had (no joke) over 9,000 errors. I have not overclocked any part of my system, and there was no power surge prior to the occurance of the lock-ups. Therefore, I would like to these parts.

Wired Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 What CPU / FSB / Motherboard do you have? What is the exact part # and revision # of each stick? Is it a TwinX pack? How To Read the Memory Label Is it a TwinX pack? If not, what is the revision # of each stick? Did you test one stick at a time in each slot using Memtest86+?

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 24, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 24, 2005 Can you tell me our modules part# (How To Read the Memory Label) and the make and model of MB you have along with the CPU speed and it’s FSB as well? In addition, please tell me the bios settings you have set for both CPU and memory and any performance settings that you may have set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
static1626861647 Posted May 24, 2005 Author Share Posted May 24, 2005 The part number of the RAM is CMX512-3200LLPT. I have a Gigabyte GA-K8NPro mobo with an AMD64 3200 w/ 400mhz (I think) FSB. I can't check my bio's right now because my computer is about a 30 minute drive from where I am right now. Whatever they are, they are the same as what they have been for the past year. As for the memory test, it was run by a technician. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 24, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 24, 2005 This MB is not that old, and I would test the modules one at a time with http://www.memtest.org and set the Dim Over Voltage Control to +.2 Volts and please make sure that you have the latest bios before you load setup/optimized defaults and set the Dim Voltage. If you get errors with both modules I would test them in another system to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
