Memtest info needed

ste-sim2x9 · 10 Mar 2009 at 08:00

I've been having some bsod screens last few days and thought i'd give the memtest program a go but i've never used this before. I left it running all night and when i got up the next morning it was still going, I have now had to stop it as i need to use my pc for work stuff but i took a pic of it 33% done. I don't know what i would be looking for so any info on this pic would be greatful.

Well the iso i have has 3.4 and 3.5 but for some reason 3.5 would not even move.

I have 2 2gig sticks OCZ Reaper HPC OCZ2RPR800C42G running in slot 1 and 3 and i have 2 2gig sticks of OCZ Gold XTC OCZ2G8002G running in slots 2 and 4. The menory is running (6-6-6-18 @ 400 MHz) , I never changed any setting in the bios so the ram and cpu are all on auto settings.

I have upped the voltage to 1.9v so do i run memtest again or just see if the bsod comes back.

I could not get memtest-86 3.5 to move but 3.4 did. Wat is the difference with 2.11+ and 3.4

I am still having bsod's and i set my ram to 1.9v then ran memtest86+ last night and left it for over 8 hours and this is what happened.

I have the packaging and that says nothing about voltages but here are afew pics of the ram stickers.

Gold series

I have tested the gold series ram on its own and the reaper on its own and they have both passed with no errors but put both gold and reaper series in together and i get errors. What would be my next options to get rid of the errors.

Well i have put the memory in slot 1 reaper, slot 2 gold series, slot 3 reaper, slot 4 gold series and set them to 2.0v and 5-5-5-18 and run memtest again and after 1 pass there was no errors. Do i only need one pass or does memtest have to have a set amount of passes as i don't know much about memtest86.

ste-sim2x9 · 13 Mar 2009 at 12:33

I wil do 3 pases overnight and post my results.

I left my pc running memtest over night with my 8gig of ram and after 2 and a half passes there were no errors.
