  1. 253mhz is the highest my Corsairs will do at 2.5-3-3-7 2.7v. I will probably stay here since squeezing a little more mhz at looser timings will probably gain me little if anything. These chips are Infineon also like jm76 said. Brian
  2. I just got my set today and they are running at 247 2.5-3-3-7 2.7v so far. I will do some more testing later. The only settings I made in the bios for now are the 2.5-3-3-7 settings, CPC enable, and Bank Interleave enable. Everything else I put on Auto. I am using the 704-2BT bios. With these modules about 2.8v is the max that will help from what I read in a review at AMD Zone. He had them up to 272mhz at 3-3-3-8 timings. Brian
  3. Well I finally have a second motherboard replacement and the memory works in the orange slots. My first motherboard replacement was damaged. When it was packaged at the factory, the Karajan module smashed and broke the power and reset buttons on the motherboard. It also bent some pins on the header beside them. I'm just glad I RMA'd the board, I figured something was wrong with it.
  4. Acronis will back up the RAID partition in Windows, but it will not be able to restore it if you are using the NVraid controller. If you have the Silicon Image controller onboard (Ultra-DR or SLI-DR) then it will work with that.
  5. It's $27. That includes the DOS version too for restoring from a boot disk.
  6. Yes, and Acronis says it will not work until there is an open source Nvraid controller driver for Linux (Acronis recovery disc uses Linux). You can backup the drive fine in Windows, it's the recovery disc that does not see the raid array correctly.
  7. Image for Windows from Terrabyte Software works great for me using Nvraid 0. Image for Windows I used to use Acronis True Image with my previous system and I really liked it, but it will not work with the Nvidia raid controller.
  8. I don't know how I forgot, but I had also purchased some OCZ PC4000 VX Gold last month that I could not get to run in dual channel in the orange slots either. I never tried the yellow with that memory. I was using BIOS 2/17 at the time and the timings suggested in the OCZ forums. I had also gotten my first set of TwinMOS to run in dual channel last month in the orange slots once. I went from BIOS 3/10P to 2/17, and I thought that fixed the problem. Since one of the sticks of memory didn't overclock very well, I put my Corsair back in and ordered a second set of TwinMOS. Ever since I tried running the TwinMOS in dual channel in the orange slots since then, it has not worked. I guess I'm going to RMA the board. I've read posts from several other people on other forums running the TwinMOS in dual channel in the orange slots with no problems.
  9. I posted this in another thread but decided to create my own since there hasn't been a response. I'd like to know if I need to RMA my board or if this is a BIOS problem. My problem is with my TwinMOS TMII400/1GB kits and my NF4 Ultra-D. I have 2 different kits and I can not get either one of them to work in dual channel in the orange slots. These are the sticks with Winbond UTT memory. My modules are all marked 05094, TMD7608F8E50D. One stick at a time works fine. I even swapped the sticks around from the different kits. This memory does work in dual channel using the yellow slots. Are you supposed to be able to boot with one stick in slot 4? I know OCZ recommends trying this when testing for a bad stick. I know you are supposed to use slot 2 for 1 stick, but I was just wondering if it should still work using slot 4. My Corsair works fine in dual channel mode in the orange slots. I even have a single stick of PQI 512mb tccd memory (MD4412UOE). I tried to pair it with one of my Corsair tccd's and it didn't work (figured, but just wanted to test it). I was using timings of 2-2-2-5 3.2v 200mhz for the TwinMOS testing. All the memory timings were set to auto except 2-2-2-5 and tref at 3072. I also tried tref at auto which I believe is 3120. I tried bios revisions 2/09, 2/17, 3/10, and 3/10p. I cleared the CMOS before trying each BIOS. My board rev. is A02. I am currently at 252 2-2-2-5 at 3.3v. CPU at 2520mhz in the yellow slots. Since DFI recommends the orange slots, would this be a BIOS or motherboard problem? Just curious if anyone thinks I have a bad slot even though my Corsair set works in the orange ones. Thanks...Brian
  10. Well, I am finally running my TwinMOS in dual channel mode. How? I am using the yellow slots. Tried both the 2/01 and 3/10P bios. I am currently at 250 2-2-2-5 at 3.3v. CPU at 2500mhz. Since DFI recommends the orange slots, would this be a bios or motherboard problem? Just curious if anyone thinks I have a bad slot even though my Corsair set works in the orange ones. Thanks...Brian
  11. I am having a similar problem with my TwinMOS TMII400/1GB kits and my NF4 Ultra-D. I have 2 different kits and I can not get either one of them to work in dual channel. These are the sticks with Winbond UTT memory. My modules are all marked 05094, TMD7608F8E50D. One stick at a time works fine. One of them even does 264 2-2-2-5 at 3.3v. I even swapped the sticks around from the different kits. Are you supposed to be able to boot with one stick in slot 4? I know you are supposed to use slot 2 for 1 stick, but I was just wondering if it should still work using slot 4. My Corsair works fine in dual channel mode.

I tried bios revisions 2/09, 2/17, 3/10, and 3/10p. I cleared the CMOS before trying each BIOS. I can't seem to find my board revision. I have looked around the last PCI slot, but can not seem to find it. Where do I look exactly? Is anyone using this memory on the Ultra-D in dual channel without problems? If so, could you post all your settings, bios rev., etc. Thanks...Brian
  12. Did you try booting with just 1 stick of memory in the second slot? Did you try a different type of memory? When I went to 3/10 or 3/10P my TwinMOS TMII400/1GB failed to boot just like yours when using both sticks. Went back to 2/17 and all is well again.
  13. I ordered the TMII400/1GB set and one stick will do 264 2-2-2-5 at 3.3v but the other one won't even do 230 2-2-2-5 at 3.5v. I'm going to order another set when they are in stock and hopefully get a second "good" one. I'll use the "bad" ones to build a stock system.
  14. I would like access. I agree with all the requirements and I have the NF4 Ultra-D and a BIOS savior. I would like to see if the new BIOS fixes the problem with using both sticks of my new TwinMOS memory.
  15. I just got a set of this memory in with the Winbond UTT chips to test out and found out the motherboard would not boot with both sticks in (orange slots) using BIOS 3/10 or 3/10P. After flashing back to 2/17 everything is working again. Maybe someone could forward this info to Oskar.
