dtx01 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Hey, I have a DFI Lan Party NF2 Ultra (Rev. A+) motherboard and 2 Corsair 512mb XMS PC3200 DDR400 sticks of ram and for whatever reason I get a lot of errors and crashing of games on my computer. Here are a few screenshots of what the errors I get. http://incubii.com/e00.jpg http://incubii.com/e1.jpg http://incubii.com/e0.jpg I get errors like that not only in steam but other games as well. The 2 sticks passed a 24+hour test in Memtest and I believe I did a prime95 a little while back on them and they passed as well without a crash or problem. So I took out the sticks and tried them one by one and still no luck. So then I tried different slots on my motherboard and still no luck. So then I took out the sticks completely and put in an old stick of Corsair 512mb XMS PC2700 DDR333 I had laying around and everything worked fine on the computer without any crashing... I played games for hours and no problems at all when I would crash in the first 10 minutes of playing on the 2 512 sticks. What does this mean? My motherboard manual says it is compatible up to PC3200 yet both sticks of ram cause problems.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted October 20, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted October 20, 2005 Can you tell me our modules part# (How To Read the Memory Label) and 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...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted October 20, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted October 20, 2005 That is not our modules part# it should start with a CMX, VS, or Twinx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted October 20, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted October 20, 2005 The tested settings for these modules with this platform would be Cas 2.5-3-3-6 and I would set the memory voltage to 2.8 Volts and see if that will sove the problem, if not I would try lowering your CPU multiplier and Frequency.

dtx01 Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 I threw the ram up to 2.8v and no good, still had crashing. So I changed the timings to the ones you recommended and so far no problems. Hopefully it holds out. I’ll keep you guys updated. Thanks. -x- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
