Ok I don't know what's wrong but when I try to play certain games, part of the way through, I'll get a bluescreen says memory dump beginning.


I have an Athlon XP 1700+ unlocked @ 12.0x133
Asus A7N266-E Bios 1b
512mb DDR Pc2100 Ram

I have nothing but the multiplier over clocked and even when I dont OC it I still have this problem. Maybe it's a setting in my BIOS ??


Can anyone please help me out
thanks

I used to get his error.

Check your Vcore.

And what type of RAM is that? If it's checp sh*t, you won't be able to get rid of the BOD.

It means blue screen of death. Its what windows does when it has problems.

I would say reinstall your OS my freind had the same problem only it was whenever he turned his comp on, so I re-installed and that fixed it.
Hope that helps

Run docmemory! I just got done with the same problem actually. I went through all sorts of hell trying to get my system working again. I tried reinstalling the OS several times, and it would lock up during the install.

ASUS Bios 1003

I flashed to 1003... I had problems only installing the OS when the CPU was OC'd.

I stepped the CPU down to standard speed, completed a successfull install and then pumped it back up. XP Pro works great (now).

I got the start of BSODs from some VID c(r)ap software... and they would go away.

Formatted and started again... good now. I still have to manually set the vcore jumpers, autodect I think is still giving slightly to little voltage at higher speeds. (I thought this was one of the items listed in the flash fix.
