antonisg, sorry to say, but the trouble really is incompatibility. I sold the board and bought a Gigabyte board, same memory, BAM, problem solved. No more problems ever since. The board is a GA-EP43-DS3L if I recall it correctly, and I think I kept the Markvision modules on it (the OCZ ones went...

I'm still having the same problems, but I don't have much time to look into this :( - memory remap off didn't help - single channel made her get less BSODs and application crashes than before, but they still happen frequently - tried disabling any speedstep and c1e features, also didn't...

Thank you all for the help, though I'd already been given the explanation by an AMD forum user. Just to sumarize for future reference by other people, Phenoms have two 64-bit memory controllers. Ganged mode makes them work together as if they were a single 128-bit controller. Unganged mode...

You know, I didn't even think about this :P Probably I'll just get another automatic reply, but it's worth a try.

Hi All, I've bought and assembled for my brother an upgrade based on these specs: Motherboard : GA-MA78GM-S2H(rev.1.1) BIOS Ver : F7 VGA Brand : HIS Model : Radeon 4670 IceQ CPU Brand : AMD Model : Phenom X4 9550 Operation System : Vista 64-bit SP : 1 Memory Brand ...

I just gathered some more info: 1) it seems that a lot of intel chipsets (mostly P35, various board manufacturers) have problems with 4gb in dual channel, on any operating system (read some problems on a mac forum). Some people report having 100% stability after changing to single channel or...

Hello guys, I'm having a hard time with memory compatibility. In the middle of the year I built a PC for my girlfriend. The build was as follows: Asus P5K-SE / EPU Core 2 quad Q6600 4x1GB OCZ Platinum 2 Revision 2 4-4-4-15@2.1v Seventeam 420w or 550w power supply (can't remember)...

dude, all of the times I saw this problem(with different boards, different brands), it was solved with bios update + fresh SO install with newest sata driver + sata driver update even if you installed with latest + MS drivers in case of nforce board. Sometimes you have to be fast tough, last...

dude, if you did all the things I said and couldn't find *any* clue, I don't know what else to do. It must be something very specific of your hardware. The last thing you can try is the forums for each manufacturer of your mobo, hd, chipset, and add-on cards. Wish you luck :( I would at least...

Random BSOD's could only be memory. The only thing I can think of, then, is to try another brand of memory, or another type of the same brand, one wich you know that is compatible with your mobo, for sure. Also, you should test it with a clean install(format) because your system files may be...

You can try to restore your system to a previous state, before you installed the drivers, with system restore. That is, if you haven't installed a lot of things since, or don't care. If not, you can create a new restore point and then delete everything from you registry that relates to...

Dude I thought you had a NF7 :P did you do a clean install?? added hardware and software one by one?? doing this you should pinpoint the problem!!! Hardware FAILURE you probably dont have. Hardware incompatibility could be. But I think it's a driver or software related problem. what has...

Please write down ALL your system specs here. See if you PSU is enough here: http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/ This error leads to the same of our BSOD's: hardware or drivers. Since you already replaced most of the hardware, I think it's either incompatibility(from memory) or some...

I think you should not change it to 0. For what I know, swap is only used when your system is out of memory, or to create a memory dump. You would probably have trouble when you needed it tough, as it would not be available. Also, I think you wouldn't have any gains in performance, just trouble...

Almost forgot to say... I now think(again) my system is stable. Been running all day long, plus those 12h... about 36h straight. It must have been the serillel, I found another user that went into trouble with this adapter. RUN FROM IT :P Maybe one day I'll try it again with my friend's serillel...
