I don't really bother with it other than to update the drivers, but I have never had a problem with it. We do get crashes on here related to it, though. I may just be lucky in that regard, but at least if I got a crash due to CCC.exe, I know what to get rid of.
Its the same problem as before... It seems to run fine under on stick.
Does it matter which module you run with, or does it run fine with one module regardless of which one is used? Also, does running with the module in a different slot cause any problems with one module?
I will try switching each module to different slots but I am thinking this is leading nowhere as it looks like the same problem as before before I shipped RMA.... grrrrrrr. Could it be my mobo? I am and have been careful with ESD, I dont know what to look for as the g-skill was working perfectly...
Do the G-Skill modules still work perfectly?
It could be your motherboard has a conflict with the Corsair kit you bought.
Yes the G-skill has no problem whatsoever and carries the same specs as the corsair ones execpt for memory (4GB). Yes i am starting to think there is a conflict... But looking on the web, a lot of people use the same mobo and corsair ram and dont have any problem..
Contact your motherboard manufacturer and contact Corsair. Explain the steps you have taken, and ask what they suggest.
Yes. Before I do this, I'm reinstalling my system and reflashing my BIOS to FC (update changes do not talk about memory).
If the problem still persists, I am going to contact them.
Those are good steps since the memory works for other people. Let us know how things go.
It's my motherboard! My system was unstable with the G-Skill ram. I suspected this for a while, it was harder to see since it seems to run better with lower ram memory. I never crashed with one stick of the corsair ram (4GB) and never (until now) crashed with the G-skill ram (2*2GB). Plus it didn't crash, it froze while emitting noise so I had to force restart manually. The noise assimilate to all the Ram crash I got in the past. Got any say before RMA?
