RAM Troubles

[Frost_Bite]

I've been playing around with my HyperX PC3200 in the past few days while waiting on my Mushkin to get here, but I have some problems.

I've got the CH-5 Ram so I'm hurting. With this RAM I can't even run 2-3-3-7 @ 2.8v without having some really quirky problems. It'll boot into windows just fine, and pass SiSandra with ease, all the while my comp is running great. As soon as I restart, i get a missing or corrupt system file and the comp won't boot. This happens everytime, what am I doing wrong? I thought 2-3-3-7 was easily doable, even on CH-5.

Can anyone help me, this is really starting to piss me off. Am I gonna have these troubles when I get my new Mushkin Black Lvl II?

turn up the voltage, loosen the timings, bring down the FSB, sell on ebay. These are your options, one or more will fix your problem. They can even be combined to enhance fixing effect.

thanks man, I jut increased the voltage to 2.9v and it's holding steady and passing SiSandra just fine with mem tests of over 5000 on both scores. This will do until the new RAM arrives.
