I need some help, A6tweaker and 1t


I just got my comp back up and running with an Epox 9NDA3+ and an E6 3500.
and like some people Im having problems with 1t memory timmings.
Every time I set it to 1t through the Bios it will load windows than restart.

Now I tried setting it to 1t through a64 tweaker and everything worked.
Ran repeated loops of SuperPi 1m between the 2t and 1t
1T always 39s
2t always 40s
And theres alot more mem timings in the bios than im use to.
similar to this http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.p...ighlight=9nda3
that I don't understand
I don't have a floppy drive or a cdburner currently so I can't run memtest.
What exaclty should I do? I would like to run this 1t.

Heres a screen

Being that it is an 9nda3+, it may not be able to run 1T. There are problems on some of these MBs with 1T.

The bootable version is actually based on linux. But this version should be better than nothing. For people who can still use bootable ver, I would strongly recommend using that instead of the windows version.

The Windows version is generally believed to be a more rigorous test. Many (myself included) have found that settings which pass MemTest fail quickly using the hci Windows version. If you can pass 1000% without errors, your memory is very likely stable.

After doing some testing and extensive research the problem was fixed.
If you have a 9nda3+, and are having problems with running 1t use BIOS 9nd35401,
unless you have a dual core or s939 3400 cpu which aren't supported.
The latest bios for this board is very memory specific.

But know I hit a wall overclocking the CPU. I got up to 2.48Ghz stable @ stock volts.
At about 2.5ghz I have stability issues no matter what voltage or dividers I use.

I was able to get 266mhz out of the memory @ 2.5-4-4-7 1t with a divider
And i was able to get 325 HTT out of the board.


I measured the PSU voltage with an MM , 12v reads 12.28v @ load with prime95
and 5v reads 5.25v @ load.

Is there anything else I should check? And what settings should I use to try a
burn in?
