louism99 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 hi my replacement memory (RMA #R78289) invoice # 456795 failed after trying to add it back to my machine. test results from memtest186- it failed test 6 at address 0013fd48e8 - 319.5 mb and test 8 at 8 more memory addresses for a total of 140 errors during a 15 min test cycle. CAS is at 2.5,3,2,6 tried at other settings, still failed still running on original 512 mb of corsair memory no problem, so memory type is compatible with my motherboard. need another RMA please.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 14, 2006 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 14, 2006 Can you tell me the make and model of MB you have along with the CPU speed and it’s FSB as well? In addition, please 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...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 14, 2006 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 14, 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 http://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.
