[Evil_Toy]

Hello!

 

I have just bought a new computer, but I have a BIG problem..

EVERY game I tested is freezing after a while or already in the menu, WHY??

It feels like it´s the memory but i dont know, I have tested many diffrent things.

I have not overclocked the system.

 

My parts is:

 

DFI Lanparty NF4 SLI-DR

AMD X2 4400+

Corsair Twinx2048 1gbx2 CL2

ASUS GeForce 7800GTX Extreme TOP

:confused:

 

I have updated the BIOS.

 

Im going crazy soon :sad:

 

Please help me guys...

Very gratefull for answers

 

Pardon my BAD english..

[oliveryochest]

welcome. first, please make a sig including bios version. things we need to know first

 

bios version

PSU(make and wattage)

all 4 connectors connected to the mobo

have you tried to verify your memory using memtest???

[Evil_Toy]

Well, Bios vers: 623-3

PSU: Aspire 500w

I have not the molex connector connected, i will do that now.

I have not run the memtest either, i guess you recomends that?

[oliveryochest]

i guess you recomends that?

of course

 

i run memtest for 8 hrs. if after, there are no errors, i test the stability in windows.

 

OCCT(30 minute test)

Prime95(8hrs)

SuperPI(32mb test)

[Evil_Toy]

Hi again, I have run the memtest now and get this error message:

 

Test Pass Good Bad Err Bits

5 8 00000f735c8- 15.1mb 00044000 00040000 000040000 1

5 8 00001f735a8- 31.1mb 00044000 00040000 00004000 1

5 11 The same numbers as the first one!

5 11 The same numbers as the second!

 

So, do you know whats wrong? =)

I have not done any memtest before so i don´t know what this mean =/

 

Well tnx for helping me.

[oliveryochest]

try upping the voltage to 2.7 and see if that helps

[Evil_Toy]

Im already have them on 2,7 v =( so that would not help =//

[oliveryochest]

timings???

have you tried 2.8

[Karl]

Hello Evil Toy,

 

It's nice to see fellow countrymen every now and then

 

I have the exact same RAM in my SLI-DR. Please take a look at this post http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showpost.p...40&postcount=42 and review my settings. Make sure that you don't have any "Auto" in you DRAM config, when I try to set "Auto" I get errors. Also, make sure that your DRAM voltage is 2,7 - 2,9v.

 

Kind regards,

Karl

Hello again guys.

 

My settings is exactily like "Karl", I did this settings before the memtest with 2.7v

So I will try more V and see what that leads to. BBL

 

 

Tnx for the answers.

 

EDIT: Well i havn´t run the memtest again, but i put the voltage to 2.9v and run a game, but the same fenomen come, could play a while but then it freeze, only thing to do is to restart the computer =/

 

Mayby if I try to just use one memory and se if it works???

Anymore suggesting?? =)

It´s so sad to buy a new computer and it doesn´t work, just my luck =//

 

BTW, must ask you guys, Is the CRUCIAL BALLISTIC memory good?

The on i mean is this one: Crucial PC4000 BallistiX DDR 2048MB CL3 Kit w/two matched,2.8V,128Meg x 64,184pi

[CommGuru]

I read else where here that other people are experiencing the studder and such you are seeing while using the x2 4400+. Have you installed the AMD X2 driver for XP? See this link for more info.. Linkage

 

Hope it helps,

Hello again..

 

Now I tried to put out one memorystick and just use one of them, now everything seems to work out as It should =) So i guess one stick is defect or the slot is on the motherboard.

Well I contacted the store where I bought the memory and they gived me an offer, I can be send a new memory to me, of course the same OR after i asked them, change memoy to this one: Crucial PC4000 BallistiX DDR 2048MB CL3 Kit w/two matched,2.8V,128Meg x 64,184pi

 

and then put some extra money between. Are that worth It? Is the crucial memory better than the Corsair? Or should I just send back the defect memory and get a new one, same memory??

 

I must try to change memory now and see if its the slot on the motherboard or the memory..

 

See ya soon.
