    1st of all Hello everyone ! I love the site full of goodies...but now i find myself in very distracting situation.... The thing is

    Mobo: Asus m4n78 se (nfroce720a)
    Power: LC550W
    Video:Sapphire 57701gb
    cpu:Amd phenom 2 945
    ram: Crossair dominator 2gb 1066
    i even have another 2gb but wont work dunno why even if i put that other stick in alone it wont work in pc....but current stick that is running is causing me very big problems....I cant run it on 1066 nor 800 it works on 666......and even on 666 is not pretty stable, lets say if i'm installing the game and browsing the net and rolling media player classic the sound start to cut and then blue screen or sometimes when i cold start to game it's like some textures are missing from special angle look if u catch my meaning,

    i've tried all sort's of stuff getting the fsb:dram on 1:1 (now it's 3:5 on 666) on 800 is (1:2 but here i see blue screen more often) and 1066 (3:8 Three words HELL BROKE LOOSE)

    I cant get the lock off the fsb clock to dram...
    i even updated the mainboard...


    T_T and even if i try to get the 800mhz it's crashing like hell not to talk bout 1066 i even tried to set the latency myself,

    then hell i got to take the battery out and suppries every time i had to get it out i need to remove my graphics card ...pain in ***....

    I dont have a plain idea wtf is wrong my cpu my ram or whole new rig god damn it if i fu*kd up everyting by playing with latency... multipliers, and ram voltages to 2.10 wich is ram need on 1066 ( i never oc my cpu 3.0 more than 3.2)

    Did i messd sumthin ? or it's teh god damn crossair the god damn "gamer ram":confused

    Please help....

    Second up from the bottom is the correct down load for Memtest86 for Windows, down load it and check yours for possible problems. If the test shows any sign at all replace that stick, do them one at a time.

    Great advice from Phil there, just run memtest as suggested for atleast 30 mins, 1 hour preferably.

    Ok i've finally managed to run memtest and.... hell, was not even 30min and it poped up 75 errors.... ?

    btw i'm running the ram on 333mhz becouse it's the most stable in win7 ??

    or i must clock the ram on 533mhz so that i could get the full 1066 but then i have to raise the voltage to 2.10v and stff i tried doing that but latency were all wrong... not even near 5-5-5-15.... if i tried to correct the latency then things really became hell... but this one time... i managed to play a GAME on 1066 and on 2.10v wiht auto latency... and worked i dunno..... bout 2 hours but in that time the things started to slow down.... in mean time..... very slow down...i even stayed without icons,n words were just gone... n stuff...

    could it be that l2 on cpu is damaged...or it's just ram...?

    Ouch, that's an ugly memtest screen. What BIOS version do you have on the motherboard?

    LOL

    I'll let you take over from here Mimsy, as i have never actually had anyone had a failure with memtest! I just tell them to do it because sometimes they are so sure it's the RAM to fault, when most of the time it's just drivers or something! And you'll most likely do a better job as i know you are good with RAM.

    i'm sending them back... just to be sure again.... did i done any damage to processor by playing whit ram's latency,mhz and voltage ??? i never oc my cpu more than 3,2ghz when i was testing if might be more stable and i've also tried to change the multiplier from 15 to 11 and raised the fsb clock to 300 ... i tried to get fsb:dram to 1:1 and then i find out the fsb:dram were locked so i stoped playing... did i do any damage to cpu ???

    From all that I have read any sign of a problem the stick is bad, not sure did you check each one by them selves? I would worry about any process or damage!
