Im running 2 x 256Mb of Kingmax PC2700 5ns RAM at 333Mhz (125 FSB with my 1.8A on an Asus P4B266 board).
I ran Memtest 86 v2.9 to check out my RAM. I get an occaisional error on tests #5 and #8. If I loop the tests I don't get an error every time, just maybe once out of 5-6 tests. Here's what I've tried (that hasn't helped): lowered FSB in increments so RAM eventually was running at only 250Mhz. Changed from CAS2 to CAS2.5. Bumped Vram up to 2.6. Ran only one stick at a time. Swapped sticks. None of this has helped.
I've ran Prime95 many times for many hours at the most aggressive timings (333Mhz, Cas2) and NEVER had any type of error. I've ran "DocMem" and never had any errors.
Any suggestions? Anybody else tried running Memtest on their Kingmax?
BTW - I swapped RAM and put in one of my Crucial 512Mb sticks (with Infineon chips) and set the speed to 305Mhz, CAS2.5, Stock Vram and ran Memtest on it. I looped it for a few hours and got no errors at all.
