New Memory Tweaker for Intel Chipsets

[9800xpv]

Thanks.

Salut!
Can you add support of the nvidia nforce 630i chipset to your software?
Thx.

[FELIX]

Could you send a register dump (with cpu-z) at memset@hotmail.fr

FELIX, do you know if its possible to modify certain Data Strobe timing values in the MCHBAR registers, such as tDQS, tDDQ, tDQSS, tRPRE, tRPST, tDS, tDH and so on. Data strobe timings, Read pre and postambles, and other values stored in SPD which from my undersdtanding if they exist in SPD then registers with RW flags must exist in the MCHBAR to change or initially set their values.

[FELIX]

These timings are not documented in the Intel documentation,
you can see this datasheet at page 131 and higher for available timings.

[mikeyakame]

All ready got a handful of chipset datasheets but thanks for the link anyhow! Some of those timings should actually exist in the MCHBAR registers, but I suppose your guess is as good as mine as to where. I've spent the last 8hrs disassembling the 1B bios core module from a Rampage Extreme bios, still at least another 3 or 4 hours work left on the disassembly. Hopefully once I've disassembled it completely, then disassembled the 21 language US module it'll be enough to figure out which assembly functions in the bios point at which strings in the multi-language module to work out what does what. Otherwise if that fails I'll have to go through Intel datasheets and work them out from the address'. That might be actually quicker, since it'd take me less time to search for the addresses and label the functions.

Hi!
I already send you CPU-Z dump. Did you got it?

[zalophus]

Just installed 3.5 and following reboot, MCHBAR shows locked and can't find way to unlock. All timings shown are correct.

Uninstalled/reinstalled twice; and have tried closing with "Exit" and with "X", all to no avail.

No other programs, such as CPU-z open.

Thanks

abit has it set that way; locked tighter than fort knox safe...memset is locked out from adjusting the MCH registers on the Pro board.

Thanks Ace-a-Rule for quick reply. Interestingly, I found version 3.4 on one of my older drives, cut and pasted it onto my new drive, and it works just fine. So it looks like it may be more of a 3.5 version issue than Abit...?

Thanks for the link, I have been looking for that info myself.

I got it a few day ago, thank.
I add support for 630i and 790i ftw in this version: memset358beta.exe

Let me know if you find some problem...

[Dee]

Felix, is it possible you will ever make a portable version of MemSet? I love the program, but it's one of the few tweak tools I use that needs installation, almost everything else is portable.

[basco]

memset 358beta works great on 790ftw!
thanks for your time and effort.

excellent Felix, looks to be working great with the EVGA 790i FTW Digital. i was just coming to ask what you needed from me to support it...but you are way ahead of me

Hello all.
This is my first post on the forums, though I've been haunting this place for years. I am getting the same error message as Leotonch on page 36:http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=92190&page=36

It is identical except the EaccessViolation is Memset.exe at 0005752B.
Access violation at address 004752B in 'Memset.exe'. Read of address 00000474.
My specs:
MSI P35 Platinum bios v 1.9
E8600 cpu
OCZ Flex PC2-9600
Windows XP 32 Bit Service Pack 3

I have tried earlier versions of memtest to the latest I see here. None are working. With my QX9650 with Service pack 2, it worked. Thank you all for the knowledge you all share, and thank you Felix for such a great work.

[FELIX]

Could you run this soft , choose DMI-BIOS in the second combo,
click on dmibios.txt and send the dump at memset@hotmail.fr

[uRnOdAiSy]

Felix, I installed the software as requested and rebooted. It gave me an "Eaccess" error when I attempt to launch the exe. So you know, I have the Windows "Data Execution Prevention" feature disabled.

[FELIX]

Could you test this memset version and tell me the result...
and send a register dump (with cpu-z->last table->register.txt) at memset@hotmail.fr

[daath]

Not that I think it matters much, but MemSet 3.5 says my memory is DDR3, even though it is DDR2...

use latest beta 3.5.3 and above IIRC

[FELIX]

...and 3.5.8 ?
I made a little change in this version for read DDR type.

[Dee]

Any chance you can answer my question about a portable version, Felix?

[FELIX]

What do you mean when you write "a portable version" ?

Portable = no installation needed.

Portable apps can be run from anywhere on a drive, or from a USB stick, etc. A portable version of MemSet would be great.
