    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    2.5-2-2 at DDR500 speeds? That's some nice timings there. Is that chart from one stick, or two?

    Haha... I have no idea why the forums booting people out; I have not had that problem yet.

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    Sweet man, that's great. I'd keep MemTest going for a few hours.. no need to go any longer if you are just going to try to OC it more. Yeah, sometimes the TRC and TRCF can screw you over, I forgot to mention that. There are other misc timings in there that held back my OC before as well, so...

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    I could have been lucky that time too, I haven't tried to accomplish that again. I am running 2.5-3-3-8 though at DDR540, so I know this memory is capable of a lot. If I were you, I'd try to just up the voltage, maybe to 3.0 or 3.2 and then turn your divider to 1:1, to *try* for DDR520. I...

    12 hours may be perfect for Prime95. I recommend you use 3D Mark 05 to benchmark. If there's any faults at all, that will usually crash.

    Could be a possibility of too much leniance. That's wierd though. Did you happen to try my settings of 270 2.5-3-3-8 3.2v ?

    I'm doubtful it's your memory, but it *could* be your CPU, I'm completely unsure. Next time I see Eclipse, I'll ding him to take a look here and get his opinions. He knows more about Crucial than anyone else.. in the world :D

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    MemTest 1.6 is the latest version, so no need to change that. 2-2-2-5 timings are good to keep, but when I used 2.5-3-3-8 @ 270, I found that to be the ultimate best in the way of Latency and Read/Writes. You may want to try 2.5-2-2 even. The 191.1 thing.. I don't know if there is a logical...

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    I'm wondering if it's your CPU holding you back. I had no problem hitting 270 * 10 @ 1.5v, with 2.5-3-3-8 timings. You could try to bump your DDR Voltage to 3.2, but only if you have adequate cooling, as you seen I have in that review. You *may* want to try playing around with those new...

    Missing my System32 folder!?!

    I've personally never heard of this before. I would definitely try more than one virii scanner though, and Spyware checkers as well.

    Yeah, I'd recommend trying to keep a 1:1 since you have a good CPU speed. If you are running 2.65GHz right now, wouldn't that make your memory DDR530? Get EVEREST if you haven't already, and then do a Memory Read test and throw me the results :D

    Sleep is for the weak :D Naw, me as well. Early shift tomorrow. Let me know how you make out!

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    You mean in MemTest right? That means you have OC'd too far. The best way to stress test would be to do one scan with MemTest then go into Windows and benchmark with EVEREST. It maybe wouldn't hurt to run a 3D Mark 03 or 05 test either, for stability. My memory is not likely beter than...

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    I consider MemTest with no errors for two hours to be stable, but I'm not fussy. I only let it run through the night when I believe I found the absolute overclock. Are you benchmarking as you are going along? I'd use EVEREST and the Memory Read test maybe, and compare it as you go along. You...

    Go into your User CP and then the options. You can set how many posts are displayed per page if you like! Yuppers, 1.5v @ 2.7 GHz. You can see ALL my info right here!

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    I personally have not gone above 1.5v on the CPU, because I use stock cooling as well. I would just watch your temps and make sure you do not go too high. My DFI BIOS supports up to 3.2, so I didn't touch any jumpers, but it may not hurt to try. I've never had to touch that for any OC's...

    You can download a the latest version of CPU-Z, which will tell you the BIOS date. You can head over to techPowerUp! for the latest BIOS, beta and official. I would recommend trying the 702-2 one, which is what I am currently using. If you don't want to use a BETA BIOS, you could use the 623...

    Crucial Ballistix PC3200 (DDR400) 1GB Kit

    That sounds like something I want to try once I have the PC3200 back in this PC. It definitely sounds achievable. For settings you could try: 2-2-2-6 @ 2.5v / 200MHz, DDR400, 2.0GHz 1.5-2-2-6 @ 2.5v / 200MHz, DDR400, 2.0GHz 2-2-2-6 @ 2.8v / 218MHz, DDR436, 2.4GHz 1.5-2-2-6 @ 2.8v /...
