Bad ram


itsbaza

Recommended Posts

i find it strange how 2 identical sticks of ram just suddenly fail and cause my system to blue screen - then fail the ram test on vista test builds ! so after spending hours re-installing XP and getting to the same reboot point - or not even rebooting only to pull my system apart and spend even more time wondering what was wrong to discover memory issues with 2 sticks of value select VS512MB400 ram - drove me crazy so i guess its time to RMA them !any one else had issue with this ram ?

Please load setup defaults and then set the Dim Voltage to 2.75 volts (+.2 Volts W/Giga-Byte) and then test the module/modules 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.

Let's go ahead and get them replaced but if you are getting errors with all three modules I would suspect some other problem, it would be close to impossible all three fail at the same time, unless the MB is damaging them.
