jonnygrunge Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Last week I was running Nero Vision 4 to recode an avi file onto DVD. When Nero finished, and I exited the program I got a BSOD complaining of a stop 1d memory fault, anyway I rebooted and got another BSOD page_fault_in_non_paged_area. I ran system restore and recovered the system registry! Suspecting the RAM I downloaded memtest86+ and ran it. It was ok for 5 passes but I have had around 372 fails on test 8, writing all F's but reading back FFFFFFFB or all F's D, alerting there could be a fault with data 2, and or data 1, as it read back 1011 instead of 1111, and 1101 instead of 1111. I have run several tests now I set my RAM to 480Mhz and it was error free for 12 hours on test #8. I have had my CPU running at 2.64GHz (240*11) at stock speed (2.2GHz), and at 2.4GHz (240*10) it still passed error free for 8 hours, with the RAM at 480MHz. It seems that if I go above 240Mhz (480Mhz DDR) the RAM fails! This does not make sense as it is rated at 500MHz Cas 3 @ 2.75V. It definately is the memory and not the controller integrated into the CPU. Can you please advise. Thanks in advance, Jon Mackie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
