Im not sure what to do now short of reformatting and going from there.
I rma'd a set of bh-5 utt
while waiting for them to come back i put in a stick of bad ch-5 and lowered it to 166 multi just till rma gets back
always got errors and crashed in 3d games like americas army
i swapped in 2X256 2-2-2 special and same thing is happening.
Memtest has no errors at all, and im going to run prime all night when i go to sleep tonight and see what happens here..
But as far as ch-5 not even running at 166 multi with no memtest errors im lost
all i wanna do is play some americas arym
sometimes i can play for hours other times i get instant crashes
and its not to desctop, reset button is only fix..
I have tried 4.40 gart and newest ati drivers no help
last ditch effort is reformat.
But what if this doesnt work.
Is there anyway to see if the cpu is going up on me?
Its practically new and barely has it ever been overclocked.
Could this be due to fluxuations in the fort 530 power?
right now typing this in windows mbm5 shows 1.31 whereas chip needs 1.35 for 2.4?
If so then wouldnt it just crash to desctop?
When it crashes screen freezes on what was last shown and sometimes teamspeak can still be heard choppy..
Any ideas would be great because im lost on this one..
