*****LOG of our PMs*****
This is so you can see what he has tried and what are his numbers....obviously read from bottom up for chronological order....
Duvie The next thing I was going to recommend was trying
1) swap sticks between the 2
2) use just one stick in slot 1
3) try the memory 100 divider
4) bump up to 2.85v of vdimm....

Those are P95 load readings. Zalman on the XP-90 running a only 2500rpm 45C@ 241x9
Still no dice above 250.. didnt do the PS thing yet..
Clock Gen also rebooted when i hit 245.
I have to work SO earyl tomorrow, so i am going to P95 this.. If it makes it through the night, there is definitely some kind of issue.
Thanks for all the help .
I'll be hitting you up tomorrow.

Old Private Message Duvie 1t is tighter but saometimes some stick of ram hav eissues going to "loose"...
Also cas 2.54 is fine but you cant leave the trcd a 3 and the trp a 2 perhaps....run 2.5,4,10,4 in that order....
Antecs have some known boot issues with this board...shut down completely hit switch off then on and restart...go into bios set speed and start....
that 11.90v at idle??? Any load readings..... 04/07/2005 04:31 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message

Old Private Message Duvie remove dimm 2 altogther...
have you tried 1t??? I had some ram that would not run cas 3 or 2t after a certain point...what ram are you using...
Again what PSU...Could be a power issue....Have you tried bumping vcore?? What does the bios and cre center say your +12v and +3.3v rails look like??? 04/07/2005 04:22 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message bjc112 Switched DIMMs 1-2
250x9
No dice.

Old Private Message bjc112 Will do..
As for the Core Center overclocking..
Went to 243 and hit ok, system rebooted.
Chaging dimm 04/07/2005 04:15 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message Duvie 1 and 3 means you are running single channel...for many 3 is a bad dimm to be ocing out of...show that in slot 2 and continue.... 04/07/2005 04:13 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message bjc112 2 stick ( but using slots 1-3 )
Could that be the problem?
SATA drive is on 3.
Dynamic is all disabled
HTT is 3x, what is the benefit of 5? Or the disadvantage? 04/07/2005 04:12 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message Duvie Try the clockgen yet...if you can clock higher in windows fine then it is a bios boot issue....
How many sticks are you running of ram??? using slots 1-2, right???
SATA drives are defintiely in ports 3 and 4 and not 1-2??...
There are some setting like dram strength, dynamic overclocking, etc on that cell submenu...what do you have set...HTT multi is 3x now and no .5's??? 04/07/2005 04:09 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message bjc112 Very odd.
1.41 flash went fine. Still 245 complete lock, no post.
241x9 in windows running Prime..
I actually think this chip has some headway, there has to be something else that could be causing it? No? 04/07/2005 04:03 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message Duvie Also to rule out bios..bott into at 240 then use this clockgen to raise the HTT with the dial and see if it holds...i am sending it now... 04/07/2005 03:56 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message Duvie It wouldn't hit a wall that fast.....
1.475 then plus 3.3% over vid gives me like 1.44v actual....Right now over vid should be nothing....just cpu vid....
Try the new bios. see if that helps but list all the rst of the stuff above the HTT, please... 04/07/2005 03:56 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message bjc112 I'll try the Winflash..
I really have a feeling it is the BIOS.
At 240x9 boots right up, runs prime.
245 BOOM, no post. Clear CMOS
The on the i am not sure about is Under CPU voltage its say Over VID 3.3%
Why not just set it to 1.475 in the setting above?!?! ( that's what it's at.)
So
DRAM:
133
2T
2.5
HTT= 3x
240x9
Vcore 1.475
2.8Vdimm
1.6AGP
66-67 as well
It's either BIOS or this just just suddenly hits wall within 50mhz 04/07/2005 03:53 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message Duvie Use winflash and try that 1.41mod I sent U...like I said I dont trust or like the MSI officials...
Also go ahead and go into the cell menu and list every setting you have set...
do the saem fro the DRam menu....
I will help you set it exactly to mine....

Old Private Message bjc112 Hmm thought I was flashing with 1.41 but when I TAB to enter post I see 1.5
Either way, can't post past 240x9 (133) cas2.5
I wonder if it is a BIOS issue or the chip..
Runs Prime just fine at 240 04/07/2005 03:37 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message

I have tried 1.37mod, 1.41 non mod, 1.41mod, and 1.51 beta...all worked fine...the 1.41mod was perferred for working with my TCCD Gskills...slightly higher ram spped can be attained with it for me... 04/07/2005 03:10 AM Mark as unread View Delete Message
Old Private Message bjc112 Good info.
Thank you.
Is BIOS 1.5 seem like a good bet? Or is the 1.4 mod really the one to go with?
