mr.john_doe Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Hello, I have upgraded my four years old pc with two new ddr rams. Now I unfortunatly experiencing blue screens with error in memory management. I thing that I have not the correct configuration for my ram on my mainboard. What I didn't know is p.e. how high have the to be the voltage for this memory. Unfortunatly I couldn't boot a cdrom because I don't have a cdrom-drive. So unfortunatly I couldn't start memtest. Can you give me advices about the configuration and my error? Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.john_doe Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Hello, here is the speed tab of one of my memory-slots but I don't know what it means: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 1. Memtest86+ can be run from a USB stick. 2. Without any system specs (including the part number of your memory), there's no way to be able to give you the proper advice. Post your system specs HERE: http://forum.corsair.com/forums/profile.php?do=extra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squishyrob Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 if you find a solution can you let me know as ive posted on here too with the same RAM/ problem and nobody has a clue so far. were not the only ones, i think the quality has gone downhill as a few different people are experiencing the same difficulties.

Wired Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 squishyrob, did you ever run memtest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squishyrob Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 hey wired, yes i ran memtest several passes and it didnt show up any errors at all. there seems to be so many of these kits going wrong lately, what do you think it may be? bad batches or maybe theyre just a bit picky? i might just have to get a refund for them i think, apart from you i havnt had any advice at all. bit dissapointed really as i was under the impression that corsair was rock solid. thanks for all your help though pal.

Wired Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Neither. It's a very common part, and this is a support forum, so you're bound to see people posting with issues. What voltage did you set the memory to? The proper voltage will be listed on the label of the memory. As for support, keep in mind that they're not open on the weekends, and I'm not sure if they were open today (federal holiday). Ram Guy may have just been posting from home.

vinark Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 There is an error in John Doe´s settings. In CPU-Z the speed is listed as 200 (= 400 DDR2) which is half speed. So he needs to go into the bios and set the speed to 800 (and to be sure also the correct timings 5 5 5 18 and voltage). If you have problems always set the speed in the bios, it may seem difficult but it is dead easy if you take your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
