HI, I recently overclocked my pc but now when i startup the RAM Wont light up, wait 10 seconds and the lights come on but it does nothing. I hit the restart button and then the pc works fine?

I havnt changed the ram setting's at all just the HT and CPU from 2Ghz to 2.5Ghz and upped the voltage a bit. I was thinking the voltage of the Ram may need increasing, but i looked at the options and it's not there. It's in my manual for the motherboard and gives me the option to change the ram voltage but its not there when i look? or could it be the timing's of the ram that need changing?

I currently have (2x1GB) of Crucial Ballistix Tracers 939 Dual LED
3.0-3-3-8 with 1T/2T set as 2T
The Ram has changed now the cpu is at 2.5 the ram is at 500MHZ (250) which i believe is its max do you think the following setting would cure this?

2.5-3-3-8 with 1T < I have AMDx2
 
yeah the prob is my Manual tells me the VDIMM voltage controll is in the Frequency menu in the bios but when i look its not there?? and the manual has picture's so all the other's are listed apart from VDIMM. i dont think i can change it? :mad:
 
Well I changed the Ram setting to 2.5-3-3-8 /2T and it didnt crash but it wouldn't load past "verify DMI Pool Data" so i had to change it back

the only thing i can think of is the Voltage but my Bios is not displaying it in the Frequency/voltage regulation menu, it say's its there in my Manual? is there anyway of overcoming this problem.

Also did you mean switching to 2T is bad or Good. I was under the impression that 1T was better for AMD? I havnt Changed it yet but its Default is 2T

Thanks

Ok Thanks i will try that but what about the VDIMM Option? is there any programs that can change the Voltage? other than the bios.
 
Ok i Changed the RAM to 1T and it wouldn't load much past Post so again i had to revert back to 2T. I think it's the Voltage but this is the final straw really no Voltage controll ? which is odd, as i can change everything else.

All i need something that can change the voltage, if such program exists.
