skippybassplaye Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I recently started getting BIOS checksum errors whenever I booted and thought it was my motherboard, so I RMAed that. However ASUS's "repairing" seems to consist of only clearing the CMOS and reseting the firmware to default,(which I had already done :mad: ) which makes me suspect it was my RAM that is the problem (especially after reading a few posts where the authors seem to have the exact same problem) So I was hoping you could tell me what I need to try before I send in my modules.

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted April 18, 2006 Corsair Employee Share Posted April 18, 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 manually to the tested settings for the specific module you have, XMS2700C2 Cass 2-3-3-6 for example or 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.
