sp2004 question

Jobe · 28 Aug 2006 at 12:56

ok i run 2 copies of said program.
Now one of them goes through the motions as normal but one always says it is paging and doesn't really run the programme properly.
Am i missing something obvious? Should it run in this way?

Regards

dont use prime for conroe's

No issues with any version of prime or sp2004 and my core 2s. The reason the other one constantly pages is because most of the memory is allocated to one instance, when i used to run dual primes i allocated 1/2 memory to each instance via the cpu option.

Same, only time mine's failed is when I've overclocked too far.

By fail do they mean BSOD?!
As my clocked Con has been running fine at 3.4Ghz, but when I changed Prime to run in real time, giving 100% stress, the whole thing booted within a second!!!

Comments anyone?

Haven't seen mine fail large ffts unless it running too fast. Smalls and blend are ok according to that, not sure I believe it.

Definetly not stable at all, lol even those who argue prime95 is a waste of time can't argue much about that
