![]() ![]() I built my pc just over 6 months ago the spec is as follows: Gigabyte GA7-VAXP mob. Athlon XP +2200 (clocked to a +2400) 512mb corsair xms 3200 cas 2 v1.1 platinum memory 80 gig barracuda hard drive DVD, CDRW, CD ROM. Coolmaster hac81v heatsink and fan Radeon 8500 retail graphics 350 w power supply The point of this is that i last week purchased a new stick of the same memory, both from overclockers.co.uk, and they just won't run side by side, the only difference between the two sticks is that the old one says version 1.1 on it and the new stick says version 2.2, yet when the pc boots up it loads in the desktop and after about 30 seconds i get the blue screen of death. Overclockers say there is no problems with the memory compatability yet i have tried both sticks in two different pc's and the result is the same, the other mob's were a asus 400 ddr and a solteck drv5v. Any help on this matter would be appreciated as i would like to get this sorted sooner rather than later, it doesn't help being an amature but i do catch on quick! ![]()

BSOD - Blue Screen Of Death ![]() If you've overclocking the memory bus, be aware that the more DIMMs you have on it, the less you can overclock it! If you've overclocked the memory as far as you can, and then drop another DIMM in, it could well be that two DIMMs put too much load on the bus for it to continue running at that speed. Áedán

Can you manually setup your memory timings.. One module is probably forcing a SPD setting the other wont tolerate. Setting them manually may fix the problem. Can you increase the VDIMM ?

Sounds like a Windows Compatibility warning.. Like when you change hardware, and WinXP freaks out on you.. Just a guess, and I didn't have this problem when I upgraded anything (Not RAM, or mobo) until I got my nForce2 mobo.. Then I had hell, had to wipe and reinstall, w/o backing up anything ![]() |
