Here I go again. This time, it is even more confusing than ever.
I have these Buffalo PC3700 DDR, 2x512Mb, with BH-5 chip. I used Abit NF7-S V2.
I can pass Memtest86+ without problems at 215FSB/DDR430 at 2-2-3(RtCD)-11 timing. I can pass all the default test for 36 passes, and about 3/4 passes on the extended test, but like always, it is not stable on windows XP, and Prime95
And, at 209 FSB (209.9 CPU-Z reading), I can pass all memtest at 2-2-2-11 timing no problem, but once again, not stable under windowsXP and Prime95
Question is: what might go wrong here? is it my memory, or? I'm frustrated here. And now, waiting for my other board to come, but meanwhile, any pointers?
