o0oPhreako0o Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hello, I have the same exact problem as the OP described. Only thing different is that my Dominator GTs are only 2 days old :mad: I have followed the instructions of RAM GUY but none of them worked. 2 Sticks are fine (8memtest runs), but one stick is spitting out alot of errors right after memtest starts. I have tested all 3 sticks seperate, and only one reports errors. (I even filmed it with my cam, so I can upload it if you want) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted June 26, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted June 26, 2009 It looks like you are using the wrong version of memtest, please use the latest version from http://www.memtest.org and what were the BIOS settings for both CPU and memory?

Wired Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Yeah, looks like 2.01. Please use 2.11 as it will have better compatibility with your memory controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0oPhreako0o Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Hello again, I rma'ed my last defective set of Dominator GT 1866 CL7 to the shop I bought it from. 2 Days ago I received my new set, and one of the ram sticks crapped out on me last night :mad: I was unrarring a file of aprox 3gb, and bam computer restart. No BSOD nothing. After that it didnt want to past POST anymore, so I resetted my CMOS. It helped, I was able to POST but that was all.. I couldnt load up windows (win7 x64, winxp x64, winvista x64). So I decided to give memtest a go.. I tested my 3 ramsticks with 'memtest 2.11', and I got LOADS of errors right off the start of the test (Just like my last defect dominator GTs). This set only worked for 1 day !.. How could this happen Corsair :confused: ? I ran the sticks at 1.65v (x58 Classified BIOS), so I did not overvolt the dimms... Could it be a bad batch ? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Please test one stick at a time in each slot. It's almost impossible to get 2 bad sticks like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0oPhreako0o Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 I already tested them seperate, aswell as in pairs. I get loads of errors once I pop the defective ram stick into my motherboard. With the other 2 working ramsticks inserted into my motherboard I get no errors, could it be a bad batch or something like that ? :S Any other suggestions wired ?
