Kornblaster Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 About 2 weeks ago I got 2 gig of corsairs Valueselect RAM. Model number vs1gb400c3. I began to experience some performance issues with various programs crashing, I thought that it may be due to OS decay (I had the install for a while.) so I reinstalled, as I was installing a game called World of Warcraft the installer kept crashing due to a bad CRC. After about 5 attempts I decided that it may be a RAM issue and I switched the modules around this time the installer got much further before it encountered the same error. I removed the module I suspected of being bad and the program installed perfectly. I loaded a program to test my memory and it did show some bad blocks on the stick of RAM. I am starting this thread more as a formality than anything else to hopefully get the replacement process started but if anyone has any other ideas please let me know.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 3, 2006 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 3, 2006 Please load setup/optimized defaults and then set the Dim Voltage to 2.7X volts (+.2 Volts W/Giga-Byte) and then set the timings if you have Value Select "BY SPD" and then test the module/'s one at a time with www.memtest.org! If you still get errors, please follow the link in my signature “I think I have a bad part!” and we will be happy to replace them or it! However, if you get errors with both modules that would suggest some other problem and I would test them in another system or MB to be sure.
