i cant run the system for hours, it just crashes after 20 mins or so , randomly , no idea why
It's voltage and timings for every frequency.
They run now at 400 mhz ( x 2 ) as you said.
You should be ok testing the ram because you need to do it from a bootable device( cd/usb stick).
ok so at 400 Mhz , 1.85 shopuld be fine ?
ill run that memtest then i guess, how long does that take ?
It's best you leave it for at least 7 passes but if the ram is faulty you should see results fasts. I saw my errors after like 30 mins. I had 2 gb Kingston DDR2 running at 667 Mhz.
have a look at this , in bios it says im running at 1.85 V , but when i run hardware monitoring software , it says the ram only urns at 1.6 , whats wrong ?
Voltages are different for almost every ram and motherboard. It depends on the quality too. High quality ram doesn't need that much voltage at 1066 Mhz ( 2.1 V) for example.
Test the ram and post the results.
the test is currenttly running :) but , shall i raise voltage , in case there are no errors?
No need for now. The voltage is good if it's stable for you.
Last time I checked my voltage was ~1.5 V. And I have 8 gb ddr 3 at 1333 Mhz ( Corsair).
I checked now and I see your MB supports max 8 gb ram ddr2. You should try to remove two modules of ram to see if the problem persists.
yes my mb supports max 8gigs thats why i bought 8 gigs :P also , many many users of the same MB recommand the ram i use , so it should be compatible.
after 2 and a half runs, i found 1 red sector ( twice ) , uhm i dont know what it tells me , what info you need from the memtest ?
