Asrock K7Vt4-4X with Apacer 2100 CL2 256 MB memory module , any problems ?
Hallo everybody,
I've built a computer with Asrock K7Vt4-4X , Apacer 2100 CL2 256 MB Ram and AMD Athlon XP 2600+. But it crashs somewhere . sometimes during the os intsallation, sometimes during the booting and sometimes it boots and after one hour it crash (even when I do nothing ). I made a memory test using the included programming with Suse 9.0 DVD. I made a harddisk test . but everything seemed to be ok. Someone suggested that the memory may be incompatible with the motherboard . Is it right ? please can anybody help me ? thanks in advance |

On my ECS board setting the RAm to normal gives problems whereas setting to fast doesn't."Go figure" as colonials saygrin -- Free Windows/PC help, http://www.geocities.com/sheppola/trouble.html email shepATpartyheld.de Free songs download, http://www.soundclick.com/bands/8/nomessiahsmusic.htm |

Even if the mobo can accommodate that it does frequently cause problems like yours. Two: run Memtest86 for a few cycles with different memory settings to check for memory errors. http://www.memtest86.com/ |
