cluzboy Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Hello, I've got 2 of these modules for more than 1 year, which worked perfect @250 Mhz. But for 1 month now I've got many crashes of windows programs, blue screens, when i start prime95 or occt it tells me i've got a hardware problem and the tests didn't succeed... I didn't think it was the memory as the 2 modules had no errors with memtest (40 pass @ 250 Mhz), but today i tried only 1 module: works perfect and the torture test (prime95 and occt) was a success, but for the other module windows has many difficulties to load, and when it happens there's a blue screen in the few next seconds :sigh!: I've tried @200Mhz with more voltage but no differences with this module. The timings have always been 2.5 4 4 8, in the bios cpu's voltage is 1,6V, DDR voltage @ auto or 2.85V (max available). PAT was activated, others performances modes were disable. i'm waiting for your advice. Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted October 18, 2006 Corsair Employees Share Posted October 18, 2006 Please try the modules at 200 MHZ with the CPU at 200 MHZ but set the timings to Cas 2-2-2-5 at 2.75 Volts and disable legacy USB and test the modules with http://www.memtest.org to be sure its not your CPU.

cluzboy Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 I tried these settings @ 200 and it works fine, but not higher. With one stick i've got blue screens at start up, i launched prime95 (blend test) and occt: as you can see the test doesn't work http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/8397/220is9.jpg occt: i chose the memory test: hardware failure too: http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/2341/220suitenm4.jpg now with the same stick occt: cpu test: it works http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/2654/220cpuit9.jpg you can see i'm only @ 220mhz: timings: 2.5 4 4 8 @ 2,75 V Now with the other stick: i'm @ 250 Mhz 2.5 4 4 8 @ 2,75 V and it works pefect (as it always did), the cpu worked @ 260Mhz in the past with the same configuration http://img303.imageshack.us/img303/9791/250of7.jpg so i think one of the stick has problems :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted October 25, 2006 Corsair Employees Share Posted October 25, 2006 I would suggest getting them both replaced as this module is no longer in production and may be replaced with another part#. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
