    This 4800 I have is sitting on one and it is fun! It's the EP-9U1697. I just got one yesterday for the 4800 that's comming. This is the link: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16813123003 I think it's the board in the book OCing for morons. lol It does make it that easy and the software is great that comes with it. I like the Thunder Probe it matches CPUZ exactally as far as the numbers go and it also gives temps. And you can reset the bios from the keyboard.

    I am totally against political jokes....I've seem to many of them elected!!

    Keith

    I think you are quite right. When Windows had dumped the memory and the computer had restarted I manually shouted it down. During the shout down process I got a message saying: “The memory couldn’t be read” and after that the computer shouted down.

    I have Wiking memory but the datashop where I bought them has got bancrupty. I think it is liftime warranty on them.

    Is there samthing wrong with my MoBo or is it bios or the memory?

    It's most likely that the issue is the memory Lagu. You don't have any memory that you can swap it around just to isolate the problem for sure between memory or the motherboard?

    Usually if it is a voltage problem the computer won't run. However it is possible it could be. I was just saying that in the normal odds of things, the first thing would be memory going out, specially if it has been runing for a long time. I get that problem and it usually shows up as seg fault errors on linux systems, where the system was running flawlessly for a long time.

    About the only way you can tell is to swap parts and see what happens.

    I´ve run CPU-Z and when I checked memory slot I notised following:

    Clot 1 512 MB
    Frequency 200 MHz
    CAS#Latency 2,5
    RAC#to CAS 3
    RAC#Precharge 3
    Tras 8

    Slot 2 512 MB
    Frequency 133 MHz 166 MHz 200 MHz
    CAS#Latency 2,0 2,5 2,0
    RAC#to CAS 3, 3, 4
    RAC#Precharge 8, 3, 4
    Tras 6, 7, 8

    Slot 1 has a freqency of 200
    Slot 2 has 3 different frequency of 133, 166 and 200 MHz
    CAC and RAC is different to Clot 1.

    Is that right? If I have 2 memorys installed should they not be similar on both RAC and CAC.

    Memory timings

    Frequency: 171,3 MHz
    FSB: DRAM
    CAS#Latency 2,5
    RAC#to CAS Delay 3 Clocks
    RAC#Precharge 3 Clocks
    Cycle Time (Tras) 7
    Bank Cycle Time (Trc) 10 Clocks
    Command rate 1T
    Dram Idle Time 10 Clocks

    Chould it be better have one memory at 1024 MB instead for 2 at 512 MN?

    Is there any wrong?

    When you put more than one stick of memory in a system, they should both be the same in order to keep weird things from happening. You could put in one stick of a larger amount. However.......... some systems need two sticks to maintain the highest memory speed. Doesn't sound like yours was set up for that though.

    As for the speed, both sticks of memory should be the same.
