Hi guys,
I've developed an instability on my KX7 that I simply can't pin down. Not sure if its damaged ram or something else. One of my thoughts is that since im now forced to use DDR slots 1 and 4, that this could be the cause of my problems over 200mhz.
I seem to run Prime95, 3dmark, n64 emu, sandra...they run fine, no problems that I can see. Except that entirely randomly, my video will go out, or the machine will hard freeze, with no indication from Prime or anything that there is a problem. Also, when I boot up the PC, my windows icons look funny. If i use the TweakUI Rebuild Icons utility, this fixes things until my next reboot.
Can anyone test/confirm if there are stability issues using DDR in 1 and 4? Especially Corsair XMS3000 256m units? Its one of the few things I cant rule out on my own at the time being. I may have to make special adjustments to the BIOS in order to accomidate slots 1 and 4.
