Hello everyone. This is my first post and I sure could use some help. I have an Asus A7V333 mobo, an Athlon XP 3000+, and 2 sticks of Corsair XMS 512 PC2700. Previously, I was running 2 sticks of Samsung 256 PC2700. I upgraded the ram and now the computer is highly unstable. Nothing is overclocked as of yet. My timings are 2.5-3-3-6.
I run memtest86 on each stick individually, and they both pass no problems. This is true for each of the three DIMM slots.
I run memtest86 with both sticks and I get 6 errors in test 5 with the ram in DIMMs 1 and 3. I've done this at both 2.5V and 2.8V with the same effect. The errors are always in test 5 and only test 5.
Moving the Ram to DIMMs 1 and 2 gives me 196 errors.
Any ideas on why I can't get both sticks to play nicely together and what I can do to get it to work? Thanks in advance for your help.
