Travis S Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I have been getting random reboots, so I checked my memory. I made a boot disk with Windows Memory Diagnostic program and ran the test. The standard test showed slot 'A0' was failing all tests (MATS+, INVC, LRAND, Stride6, WMATS+, and WINVC) with 40 errors. The standard test showed slot 'A2' had no errors. So, I removed the RAM from slot 'A2' and retested slot 'A0' with the 'bad stick'; the following are the standard testing results from one pass: MATS+ ..... 3 errors INVC ........ 2 errors LRAND ...... 1 error Stride6 ..... 1 error WMATS+ ... 16 errors WINVC ...... 32 errors All tests failed. I removed the bad stick from slot 'A0' and replaced it with the other stick (same type - came together too). Running the same test for this other stick, I came up with 0 errors. I ran the extended version of the test to check more thoroughly and came up with 0 errors. System/Bios Information: Memory (Bad stick): - Module Name: Corsair VS1GB400C3 - Lot Number: 0539042-0 - Serial Number: 558821 - Memory Timings: @200MHz 3.0-3-3-8 Memory (Good stick): - Module Name: Corsair VS1GB400C3 - Serial Number: 558832 - Memory Timings: @200MHz 3.0-3-3-8 CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ (2.0 GHz) MB: Asus A8N-SLI Premium - HyperTransport Frequency: AUTO - AMD K8 Cool'n'Quiet: ACTIVE - RAM timing mode: AUTO - DDR voltage: AUTO - CPU frequency: 200.0 - PCI Express clock: 100MHz - DDR voltage: AUTO - Chipset voltage: +1.5V - HT voltage: +1.20V - CPU multiplier: AUTO - CPU voltage: 1.350 v FSB: AMD Hammer - real clock: 200MHz - effective clock: 200MHz - HyperTransport clock: 1000MHz Currently I'm using my computer with only the good stick in slot 'A0' and would like to know where to go from here?
