Synchronize Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Hello, My memory has somehow deteriated and now makes my system very unstable. BSOD's etc.. I ran memtest and i got alot of errors throughout the whole test. I know it's the ram because they were working just fine in the beggining as i ran memtest for 8hrs and all was good. But all of a sudden they somehow deteriated and became very unstable. I haven't overclocked them or put the voltage up. I did experiment with settings after they started going crazy on me. But nothing has worked, i class myself as an advanced user and have been building my own computers for quite a while. Saying that i know that the memory is at fault and i'm trying to RMA them but i haven't heard anyhting from support about my RMA ticket. I don't know if the situation is different for me as i live in the UK. So does that mean i have to speak to EU support or something? This is my first corsair purchase and i'm not very happy. Basically all i'm asking is if someone can give me advice on this RMA procedure. I paid alot of money for these modules and i don't wanna be throwing money down the drain.... Thx in advance.

CMC_SAVAGE Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 i ran memtest for 8hrs and all was good Were the errors in certain tests? 8 hours is more than enough to test the RAM. Errors in certain test#'s would indicate a problem elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first run i got a total of 44 errors, so weird too cos these dimms were fine in the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 24, 2006 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 24, 2006 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...
