These are my results approximately, 5 hours into the test. (testing both sticks)

What do I do now?


I checked MSI's website (for my mobo) and the RAM I am using is not listed under "compatible memory" so does that mean it will never work? If it wasent compatible, wouldn't my computer not boot up at all? I can get into BIOS...

If that's the case, how can I test my RAM to make sure it's not faulty? Since it's not compatible? I don't want to return RAM that is fully functional.

I assume the current DRAM frequency is DDR3-2133, and the timings and voltage are set to 11-11-11-30 at 1.5-1.6v? Chances are the only way you'll ever get that RAM to run at that high a frequency on the A55 chipset is to bump the NB, CPU-NB, and DRAM voltages. And you may also need to loosen one or more of the timings. You'd be better off running it at a lower speed, like DDR3-1600 or 1866 w/ tighter timings. Post a pic. of CPU-Z open to the SPD tab so we can see what the SPD timings are for that RAM at lower frequencies.

Test one module at a time, and look at the DIMM sockets for dust or lint and at the modules for any tarnish or junk on the gold contacts.

Your 2133 MHz 11-11-11 memory probably uses 1333 MHz 9-9-9 chips, if a picture I saw of a RipjawsX PC17000 with its heatsink removed is still relevant.

Additionally post a screen shot of the Memory tab so we can see what timings you're currently running.

I can't get an OS to install, this is a new build and I keep getting strage errors during installation.

Windows cannot copy files required for installation. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570

Every time I try to install Windows. I tried different discs, and an external CD drive as well as bootable USB drives. EXACT same error.

The RAM is not at that frequency, I had it on OC setting but since I couldn't even GET to the install screen so I changed it to standard settings.
