i had this problem when i baught it but sorted it when i upped the voltages on the ram (didnt read the note that came with my geil)
i ran orthot to check it was stable after doing this n it was 100% on both cores didnt crash or anything :)

but now...few months on n its doing it again, i did a bios update but i didnt get any message to say ti had completed all i got was a nice black screen, no hdd led activity or anything (it was a pain to get it to start up agen)

right now im not realy botherd al i play is css n it dusnt crash on that :)

it only seems to happen wen running orthos??? i'm not sure if its my cpu as but i had dabble in ai booster (learned my lesson, never do it again) but i got everything back to normal, upped my ram voltages to 2.1 (recommended) n its started crashing in orthos, im told bios updates can sometimes mess up but i duno what to do, can anyone help me...again??

my spec is:
E6600
2Gig of geil (not put the timings to 4-4-4-12, left em alone)
Asus P5B
Hiper type-r 580WATT
Radeon X1600PRO
 
i have it downloaded n everything, but how long should i let it run for??

last time i wasted most of my nite n there was nowt wrong
 
aight...i did it for not long i know but i got bored lol so decided to stop wen the last one had reched 100%, didnt crash at all, both my cores on 100% while it was running, mem useage (this is according to my G-15) was at 99%, n i got no errors al prolly run it longer wen i have more time :)
i got these:




im guessing this is a good result but i wudnt realy know, tis weird how it only crashes with orthos :confused: this lasted a considurable amount of time longer, btw it only last 14 secs max on orthos lol
 
That should be stable enough although my ram errors usually occurs well after 500% coverage.

I have nothing else to suggest apart from clearing CMOS & removing battery, then go into BIOS and manually set the RAM settings to 2.1V 4-4-4-12 again.

Also I noticed that your CPU is ever so slightly overclocked to 2.47Ghz as opposed to 2.4, try manually setting fsb to 266Mhz. In addition what is the vcore setting in yoiur BIOS? If it's currently on auto try manually set it to 1.325V or 1.35V.
 
ok, i think i changed it, i was looking in bios n noticed the N.O.S mode was in auto, which everything was set to auto


i changed this to manual n it nocked my fsb to the default 266 auto n i belive i have my stock clocks back now :), ive also noticed the drop in temps (was wondering why they had gotten higher than usual) so thank you for noticing the clock speed m8 very much appreciated!!
