Rogfield Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 First off, I have 3 sticks of identical 1GB DDR3 1333mhz Kingstons. It all started when I installed a brand new Asus HD6950. Everything worked fine for 2 days and then suddenly Windows started blue screening while playing games, surfing the web, listening to music and so on. I thought that it might have been something wrong with the card so I reset it to default clocks but the blue screens didn't stop. I ran furmark for 2 hours with no problems whatsoever so the next thing I did was get rid of my CPU overclock (Phenom II x4, 3.6 --> 3.2). Nope, nothing. Hard drive scans - nope, no errors. Then I mem tested the crap out of the memory sticks (individually of course) - no errors. The interesting thing is that memtest shows hundreds of thousands of errors when all three are in. What does it exactly mean? Is there something wrong with the way my motherboard (Asus M4A77TD Pro) manages memory? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThInK192 Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 You might need to hardset (set your self) your memory timings and voltage. Go to Kingstons web site and get the timings and voltage for your memory. Then hard set them in BIOS. Let us know how it goes.

I ran memtest again and this time I got no errors on 3 sticks (7 passes), but prime95 crashes a few seconds after I start a torture test.
