Hi there,
this is a newbie talking so pls forgive me for my stupid questions
I've gathered up a system based on an asus a7n8x deluxe mobo. Put two pc3200 256mb kingston ram into the slots where they would work on dual channel basis. By default the bios memory frequency is set to 166mhz so I wanted to change it because ram modules are ddr400 and theoritecally they would work with 400mhz I assumed... but there were only 166 and 200 mhz on the list. I think I missed a point at this stage?? Can you give me a clue...
My cpu is Xp 2500+ and working with 333mhz will this be a disadvantage for the system while memory is running with a different frequency? And where can I check the pcb version inorder to update the bios?
Last question about the blue screens: Today when I powered on the computer it brought up a blue screen saying :
registry_error; windows is shutting down to protect your system from a serious error. It was saying a registry error so I setup the winxp again and blue screen was gone. Soon I checked the compatibilty list at the kingston's web site; my ram modules (which are cl3) were not on the list. Would this be the main reason of the blue screen?
Sorry about this long series of questions and thank you for all your helps.
