    Random crashes again


    Still have random crashes for nothing - no stresses for the PC I have run memtest (shoudl I run memtest86) prior and prime 95 and this reports no erros with the memory.

    I have lowered the overclock and it still crashes.

    Can someone take a look at the minidump files and let me know whether it is still memory related

    Thanks

    overclock


    if you are overclocking it could be anything causing your crashes put everything at stock speed and test to make sure your problem is somewhere else, you have to have everything just right before you attempt to overclock

    The overclock has previously worked on this machine for over 2 years, but can put back to normal and rerun tests

    Reduced the PC back to standard and ran Prime 95 and it failed on following FATAL ERROR: Rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4 (worker thread 1)

    What does this mean, searching google suggestes that teh vcore is insufficient but teh CPU is back as standard

    Cheers

    Vcore


    Vcore for that CPU is 0.85V – 1.5V I would run it about 1.0

    Thanks as standard on auto teh vcore is running at 1.33 odd and I left the overvolt at 1.3625.

    Strangely enough, I put back the overclocks and ran Prime96 for 4 hours without a hitch.

    So Ithink I will run the test with one memory stick in and see whether it points to bad RAM

    Thanks
