nexAddo Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Hi I think I have some corrupt RAM on my hands now, since Windows crashed on me and I had to reinstall it, but it wouldn't let me reinstall. I tried everything including buy a new hard drive. So I tried taking out 512GB x2 of my dual channel ram and now it works fine, and when I go to put the ram back in, it decides to corrupt my windows install again.

nexAddo Posted May 26, 2007 Author Share Posted May 26, 2007 Well I just ran Memtest for 7 hours and 21 min last night on my suspected corrupt 1GB of RAM and got 314 errors in 14 passes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 29, 2007 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 29, 2007 Can you 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...
nexAddo Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 I'm running the FSB at 160Mhz with a x20 multiplier. The RAM I currently have in there is running at 266Mhz with the acceleration mode enabled on my Asus P5P800 SE mobo. The timings are at 2-3-3-6 with a burst length of 8 clocks. The DDR voltage is 2.75V and the CPU voltage is 1.325V Another problem I didn't mention earlier was that when I had the corrupt RAM in the machine I went to install windows and it could not copy some of the files over correctly. This is usually because of bad RAM since I just bought a new hard drive to install windows on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 30, 2007 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 30, 2007 Please set the CPU to default and then leave the memory at DDR266/133MHz and test them again with http://www.memtest.org to be sure one is not failing.
