I popped all 4 in before I started doing the single and then duel tests with this software and it threw errors almost immediately.
yet when I run the test with one or two sticks at a time no errors at all

How did you number the DIMM? 1, 2, ,3 ,4 or 1a, 1b, 0a, 0 b?
I wrote it down as DIMM 1 2 3 4
wrote down the ram as 1 2 3 4 and made sure to use the sticks in the order that I wrote it down when I did all the combo tests as you requested
The slots are in pairs so it's too difficult to keep track of which slot is which, the whole process was pretty straight forward
When you did single RAM testing which DIMM slot did you use?
When you did double RAM testing which DIMM slots did you use?
I used DIMM 1 for all the single stick tests.
when I did the two stick tests I wrote down the list you wrote out and did them all one by one, marking them off as I went so I wouldn't miss any so I did;
R1 R2 in DIMM1 and DIMM2
R1 R2 in DIMM 3 and DIMM4
R1 and R2 in DIMM1 and DIMM4
R1 and R2 in DIMM 2 and DIMM3
R1 and R2 in DIMM2 and DIMM4
R1 and R2 in DIMM 1 and DIMM3
did all the combos you asked me to, like I said.
Nice.
The rest of the tests will be testing 4 modules at 1 time.
It's to determine whether there is or is not a RAM /DIMM /MB problem.
Sometimes errors only appear when the computer is cold.
More often errors appear when the computer is hot.
Test 1:
R3 into DIMM 1
R4 into DIMM 2
R1 into DIMM 3
R2 into DIMM 4
Test 2:
R3 into DIMM1
R1 into DIMM2
R4 into DIMM3
R2 into DIMM4
Test3
R3 into DIMM1
R1 into DIMM2
R2 into DIMM3
R4 into DIMM4
Test4
R3 into DIMM1
R2 into DIMM2
R4 into DIMM3
R1 into DIMM4
Okay all 4 combos spit the same error within the first 10 seconds:
Test: 3 Addr: 27FFFFFFC Expected: 0000000 Actual: FFFFFFF CPU: 0
please post images into the thread
It's a massive pain for me to do that as I have to take them, email them to myself and then post them using a computer because my iPad doesn't like to post on this site for whatever reason.
the error is exactly like I wrote it out on al, four combos within 10 seconds of the test being started
