[pbarusta]

Hi

Can you tell me the bios settings you have set for both CPU and memory and any performance settings that you may have set?

Hi

 

the bios is very basic, I checked everywhere and found no evidence of a memory timing settings.

All i know is that the bios is in "Failsafe" mode..

And the required memory speed for this CPU is actualy 333Mhz.

(Athlon 1500+)

 

I hope this will be of help..

Then I would ask the MB maker to help you set these settings:

CPU Freq: 133 MHz

System Performance: User Define

Memory Frequency: DDR333

Dim Voltage to 2.7 Volts

Resulting Frequency: 166MHz

Memory Timings: Manual/User Define

SDRAM CAS Latency: 2.5T

SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (tRCD): 3T

SDRAM Row Precharge (tRP): 3T

SDRAM Active to Precharge Delay (tRAS): 7T

Ok.. I had to make some research on the net in order to understand why I couldn't change the DRAM setting. I finaly found an unlocked kind of bios with access to DRAM timing. I changed it then found the settings, as you told me..

Then..... nothing more..

 

I really think the module is broken..

 

Can I finaly have a new one ?

 

Thanks
