So I got my memV an extra 0.1V and now Update to F9, ram at 201.1 timings 2.5 4 4 8 Voltage +0.2 ET4 fully functional. So for my all works fine!!

Something strange happened. Running F2 ram at 201 timings 2.5 4 4 8 Voltage +0.1 worked fine, ET4 gives no temps. Update to F8, ram at 158.1 timings 2.0 3 3 7 Voltage +0.1 ET4 fully functional. Update to F9, ram at 157.9 timings 2.0 3 3 7 Voltage +0.1 ET4 fully functional. I go back...

I'm running F8 bios, temps looks accurate in speedfan and some other programs.

I first will install a new ide HD (extra) and look if the "problem" changed. Anda new PSU maybe maybe......

I used speedfan and everest to check teh voltages. Vcore; 1.552 Vcore2: 2.67 Vio: 3.20 +3.3 ---> +3.20 +5 ----> +4.27 +12 ----> +11.97

Over all, I satisfied with this board. Still I have a strange problem (little). Often when I have a cold start the system freezes before it get to windows. I do a restart directly after that happens it works fine. I'm not able to say what the reason for this could be.

I found this on the gigabyte site, about the memory problems check this link http://www.giga-byte.com/Mothe...t/FAQ/faq_amdguide.jpg

I use Geil memory for some months now, And it's perfect. In Bios you kan set the timing to 200Mhz. Vram voltage to 2.6V (+0.1) and the timings are 2.5-4-4-8

i'm not sure what 2T means, but the BIOS (F2) says T2 settings AUTO and cpu frequency Auto my ram settings are 2,5 -4-4-8

Kongking wrote I had the same problem, now my dram voltages set at 2.6V (+0.1 in Bios) (200Mhz) and all works fine and stable.

I just tried ET5, but no temperature (no cia.mib, smartfan or pchealth) Then I use live update, so some dll files where installed. but after that et5 didn't start anymore (din't found entrypoint in work.dll) Bios F2 (stable )

I will search for the values, but I'm not very experienced with this matter so give me some time. I presume that Aida32 or Sisoftsandra can give me the answers.

At 08/30/2004 I posted the following: But after a few days the system freezes at some moments, mostly in games or benchmarks. So I set the timing on auto. All problems are gone now. with frequency 157.9 FSB CPU/14 CAS 2.0 RAS to CAS 3 RAS precharge 3 Tras 7 Trc 10 Maybe later on...

it seems that SP2 and Athlon64 can give problems, so maybe you betterdon't install sp2 for the time beeing.

I have Geil DDR PC400 2x512Mb Kit Ultra SeriesDC (single sided i presume) It's stable at frequency 201.0 MHz FSB DRAM CPU/11 CAS 2.5 RAS to CAS 4 RAS precharge 4 Tras 8 Trc 11 Idle timer 16 with SPD Bios F2, no problems at all. Bios found at the giga-byte site
