Millerman Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 System Crashed to Blue Screen, would not reboot. Since it was new RAM couldn't believe it had failed. Ran Chkdsk, found corrupted hard drive Errors, kept coming back to "Nonpaged Fault Error" and corrupted ntfs.sys. Should have checked memory first, but did a reformat of the hardrive (damn). Ran Memtest86+ V1.65 - and uncovered a massive amount of memory errors (86,000 errors just through Tests 1 & 2). This memory was not overclocked. The bios was set to default for all voltages, timings etc.. (It was new ram and I didn't want to screw it up). I require a posting number so I can fill out form for RMA.

Wired Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Test one stick at a time in each slot using Memtest86+. Try these settings: CAS Latency: 2 RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3 Row Precharge (tRP): 3 Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 6 Memory voltage: 2.7x or 2.8 volts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
