Don't ask what the difference, but NB and CPU NB are different. If you don't have that particular setting never mind for right now.
CPU/NB offset voltage: 1.100
NB voltage: 1.093
DRAM voltage was up to 1.643, and the sticks say 1.5v.
SATA ports with RAID HDDs are set to RAID and not AHCI. Should they be set to AHCI? I didn't know there was much of a difference, and I figured if they were RAID drives, they should be set as RAID. If that's not what they should be set at, I'll change them. If it doesn't matter, I'll leave it.
I've had a couple problems starting the system up from restarts now, too.
After setting the voltage, I had 4 successful boot-ups after powering on. The fifth time, the Windows logo froze and the system auto-rebooted. It started fine after that, though. I don't know how stable it'll be. I'm going to attempt putting the second RAM stick in and I'm going to see if it crashes or not.
I still don't consider this solved, but at least the blue screens seemed to have gone away for now. I'll have to see what happens with the other RAM stick in.
When I get a hold of the Windows disc, which is at another location, I'm going to try running startup repair and maybe that will help, too.
Well, I tried it with both sticks and instant crash. I'm thinking of trying each of my two sticks in the DIMM slot one by one, and I'll have to see if it helps anything.
Tried putting one of my sticks in, and it auto-rebooted Windows at the startup logo again, but once again, it started fine after that the second time it tried.
So I'm going to assume that that particular stick is okay, since the same thing happened with only one stick. I'm going to test my other stick of RAM in his machine, too, just in case that stick is bad, too, so I can RMA both bad sticks instead of RMA one while I still have one other bad one that I need to send.
So, I may have stopped the BSODs, but Windows is still acting up on startup, but hopefully that's something that a startup repair can mend. I'm still going to work on this, but I need a break right now. I've been working on this since 8 a.m. and it's 2:20 now.
