Corrsair ddr2 random post

[Jono1984]

Hi, My issue is weird at first everything worked fine for a month or two. Then one day i turned my computer on and no post. So i stripped everything down and put it back together again, still no post. Then i took one ram stick out and it worked. Put it back in, and it worked with the 2 sticks in :confused:. Every couple of days it wont post after shutdown so i have to remove one of the sticks (this is a issue with both), boot up so it will post, shut down, then boot up with both in, then it works with the two sticks. BIOS updated, running stock on manual timmings and voltages, stock speeds for CPU and Graphics. HELP PLEASE

Please make sure that you have the latest BIOS for your motherboard and then load optimized defaults and set the Memory Voltage to 2.2 volts and then set the timings to 5-5-5-15 (CAS-tRCD-tRP-tRAS) and then test the modules one at a time with http://www.memtest.org! Please allow memtest to run 2-3 passes on each module. If you still get errors, we will be happy to replace them! 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.

 

Make sure when running memtest you have “Legacy USB Support” disabled in the BIOS.

Already had the latest BIOS update on and timmings, voltages set to manualy. I ran a mem test all night and no errors seems so weird.

Then that would suggest the issue is not caused from the memory, most likely cause would be a Power or grounding issue from what you have described.

I would remove the MB from the case and just run the system on a desk/bench for a day or so and see if the problem persists if so I would try another PSU to test the system.
