K8NS Pro - Strange Issue with Memory
Hi all,
I have what seems a strange problem with the stability of my Windows XP (32bit) when I add in another 1GB DIMM. Let me explain.... All works fine and dandy with the 2x512MB DIMM's, no issues. I add in another 1GB DIMM (PC3200 from crucial.com) and the bios recognises it, windows starts up, windows see's it. Then when you try and run programs in Windows you get strange things happen like them crashing, explorer starting to eat CPU cycles (all 100% of them). I even tried to install Halo with the extra memory in and it won't, get a message relating to memory then a blue screen. Take the memory out and everything back to normal. Surely it can't be a bad DIMM else it would get picked up at bootup? Has anyone else seen a similar problem?? Thanks in advance, Jason AMD 64 3200 K8NS Pro F1 |
