SPDTool: Read, Edit and Flash your Memory's SPD

[Hutch]

I have a pair of ram right now that won't boot at 6-6-6. 5-6-6- works but 6-6-6 is no post. The board in question is a p5b vanilla. I looked in the spd information and saw that allowable cas settings were 3, 4, and 5. Would modifying the spd to allow cas6 work? Or is this a board limitation? Once in windows, I can use memset30 to adjust cas from 6-8 without issue. Not like I'd want to live with having cas6 but just for purposes of seeing what it'll do

I was wrong, I tried it and it wouldn't boot. To fix: put a good stick in and boot... Flash back to original spd......

I'm getting the no memory modules found, incompatible smbus driver - it's under Vista.

Is there any chipset driver I can install to fix this or am I SOL?
I need to flash some chips

It's an intel 845 chipset I'm trying to do it on.

[ziddey]

no ddr2 for 845

[AbRASiON]

no ddr2 for 845

Sorry it might be 945?
Can I fix these SMBUS drivers to make it flash or is it a board limitation?

[Warboy]

Does these work when Using a X38 as a motherboard?

[kiwi]

Yes, it works on x38

[Warboy]

Yes, it works on x38

I just tried it in Windows XP 32-bit and it didn't detect my crucial memory.

I see you have maximus and it works on it no problems here Are you using latest 0.62 version?

Oh there we go, Thanks. I didn't know there was a 0.62 version.

[Apokalipse]

0.55 doesn't appear to work on my MSI K9A2 Platinum (with a 6000+ Windsor F3)
it says "Could not start driver: This diver has been blocked from loading"

I'm using XP x64 with SP2

*edit*
0.62 works on it.

Is the ati express 200 for intel supported.Do you need the wpcredit id #?

1.) Development speed is nice!
2.) How about an Expert, an Advanced and a Noob Profile?
- ExpertProfile would allow the User to change everything
- Advanced allows more than Noob but less then Expert
- NoobProfile allows only CAS Latency(tCL), RAS to CAS Delay(tRTC), RAS Precharge(tRP) and Precharge Delay(tRAS)

Disabled Features would only be greyed out.
Default Profile would be 'Noob' and everytime the User wants to get to one of the other 2 Profiles an explicit Warning Message shows up. OK, this would be kinda irritating, but how often do you flash the SPD? Since its not a daily job its ok with the Warning PopUps i guess.

IF u think about taking in a ProfileSystem u are free to change the ProfileNames

PS: WEITER SO! ;D

In my search, I found this site and it goes over the basics of SPDTool:
http://forums.overclockers.com.au/sh...d.php?t=562506

I had kind of worked through SPDTool basics on my own going step by step through the hex table and was merely trying to match two sets of similarly timed DDR to run at 400mhz on an MSI board I like. But that page seemed to cover the essentials.

BTW, thanks W1zzard for this excellent utility!!

someone have find the solution for use spdtool under ICH10R ??

[godis_knugen]

wow this tool might save my day.

i have a corsair dimm reporting some strange spd info.
its form a set of "twin2x4096-8500c5df" modules

the jedec1 seems completely of.

Tnks people

have you checked in your bios under security to see if the SMbus is being hidded from the system. cause if it is you will get that error, make sure its not hidden

cause i use to get that but remembered that it was being hidden from the system in bios.

[RyderOCZ]

SPDTool does not support P45 chipset.

[OnDaS]

Yes,

Tnks people!
