Ugiewawa Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I put this computer together back in Feburary, and havent had any trouble out of it untill the last month or two. It started rebooting, getting error messages, I/E started crashing etc. First i ran AVG antiviruse, it found nothing, i ran several spyware programs, with no real problems found, then i downloaded nortan's anitviruse trial version and it found nothing. So i decided this wasnt the problem. Recently the problems got to a point that the system would only go through a continuse loop of reboots, and just clicking on anything would lock it up, if it happend to finish rebooting so that i could do something. So two days ago i decide to see if it might be the memory. I took out one stick of memory, samething, continouse loop of reboots, blue screen of death that goes away so fast all i can read is something about a memory dump. I replace that stick of memory and take the other out, BOOM, boots up first try and ive had no trouble out of it at all since that point, everything is stable, no lock ups, no crashes. So i guess i need to know where to go from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 28, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 28, 2005 Can you 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...
Ugiewawa Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 All settings are at optimal or default, nothing has been overclocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 29, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 29, 2005 Please set the memory voltage to 2.7 Volts and set the timings manually to Cass 3-3-3-8 at DDr400 and test the system with http://www.memtest.org.

Ugiewawa Posted December 29, 2005 Author Share Posted December 29, 2005 There is no way for me to test this stick of memory, with it in, all the computer will do is beep, no matter what slot i put it in, even by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugiewawa Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 Thanks for the help. One more question, will i need to send both sticks back since they were bought as a package? Or does that matter with the memory that i purchased? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 30, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 30, 2005 Yes you should submit the RMA request for one Twinx set and send both modules so they match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
