ether.real Posted January 7, 2006 Posted January 7, 2006 OK, I think the memory controller on my CPU died, but I am looking for confirmation to make sure I didnt miss anything. Symptoms: Been running F@H for the last week or so, went to fire up some BF2, and during the map load, BF2 crashed and the PC locked immediately after. Tried to reboot, got a long repeating 1s beep, with 3 LEDs on the board (indicating RAM). Troubleshooting steps: Removed all except one stick, reset CMOS, and tried to boot from the first orange slot. Tried a different stick, same slot. Moved stick to farthest yellow slot. Got same long beep and 3 LEDs each time. Reset CMOS between each step. I am going to put it into an 20 hour CMOS reset, see if I get lucky at all. My CPU was running 11x250, as high as 1.54v, but lately down to 1.51v. Anything else I should try? How is AMD with RMAs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ether.real Posted January 7, 2006 Posted January 7, 2006 UPDATE: Got it to POST with a generic stick of RAM. Will also post now with a single VX stick, but not 2. Currently memtesting each stick individually to rule them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
