Windows is now sucsessfully installed and working great :) I've run Prime95 stress testing and such with zero erros so I'm hoping the system is stable and good to go now :)
Okay computer in question was having some issues, seemed to have borrowed down and repaired by updating bios so now I'd like to put windows 10 back on the system but I seem to have a problem.
i...
No I knew it was outdated but I hadn't updated it yet, I finally decided to go ahead and update it yesterday. It's version A11 now lol
memtest ran ran after updates were completed and no errors...
Hello again, I was asked on a different forum to update my bios completely, after doing so I ran the memtest one more time with all 4 sticks installed.
zero errors found! evidently the errors...
Okay so if the motherboard is the issue I'd like to just order a replacement a move forward.
is it possible to order exactly the same board and just move all the hardware over?
Okay but I just tested all the slots and sticks with no errors so didn't that prove that the slots were working as they should?
sorry if this sounds stupid but shouldn't the fact that th tests...
Okay I did all of these combos, in this order and none of them showed any errors at all
Okay reseated the sticks and tried again, both sticks showed up so I guess that was nothing but a little human error there.
onto the next combo! Will update when they're all done :)
With all sticks in it throws errors in the first pass within 10 seconds of starting the testing
Hey quick update, I ran the test with all sticks in again and reconfirmed the error.
i noticed when I was looking at the summery for the test with the the RAM from DIMM 1 and DIMM 3 Removed that...
So did you want me to put the sticks back in like they were in the first combo you gave me, reconfirmed there's an error and then start doing the tests you just recommended above?
With 4 sticks of ram in it has always showed errors on Memtest86 version 7.4
when I tested with all 4 sticks in using memtest86+ no errors where shown at all.
when I tested using two ram stick...
Also I thought the tests I did with two sticks of ram at a time where to test the dual channeling thing?
Put it back like it was in the first combo?
R3 in DIMM1
R4 in DIMM2
R1 in DIMM 3
R2 I'm DIMM 4?
Someone on another form said it could possibly be a voltage problem and recommended I turn the voltage up and try again?
How would I do this?
Would it possibly help?
Honestly the crash...
I doubt it, it was purchased like 6 years ago
Yup says exactly the same thing, I just stopped it sooner so it shows less errors of course
I stopped the test and moved to the next combo as soon as an error showed up
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...
Okay all 4 combos spit the same error within the first 10 seconds:
Test: 3 Addr: 27FFFFFFC Expected: 0000000 Actual: FFFFFFF CPU: 0
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...
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
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
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...
Exactly how you asked, I used ram stick 1 and 2, I did all the combos with them that you had listed for me on the previous page
