Actual TwinMOS Modules and ICs

[EvolutionCrazy]

i've tried to flash the D27 taipan 0.3 1T over 2T version without clearing the cmos...

this is the result:
there's no more optimal/agressive/turbo presets.. only expert setting...


but now:
220 2-3-2-8 1T @3v memtest #5 ok and windows load



yesterday i've tried that bios but i remeber that i wasn't able to load windows (@200mhz 2.5-3-3-8)... and i remember that i've all the optimal/spd/agressive... settings selectable!!!

now i'm writing here at 220 2328 1T!!! woowoow

i've just flashed this bios:
http://members.lycos.co.uk/bios/Merl...9_28.12.04.rar

over this one:
http://members.lycos.co.uk/bios/Merl...C_27.12.04.rar

using flashmenu without clearing the cmos...

what's happening?

I'm confused.

The first link ending in 27.12.04.rar has a file named "Nvidia Bpl 3.19 Cpc Off.bpl"

The second link ending in 28.12.04.rar has a file named "Nvidia Bpl 3.19 Cpc On.bpl"


If you have indeed flashed the first one over the second one then you are actually on 2T at the moment surely?

(CPC On = 1t and CPC Off = 2t)

sorry, i've inverted the 2 links

this is what i've done:

tried the ram with the d26 mantarays xt => memtest #5 freeze at any speed above 166mhz...

flashed (clearing the cmos) D27 taipan 0.3 cpc on => tons of errors in memtest #5, windows wont load at any speed...

flashed (clearing the cmos) D27 taipan 0.3 cpc off and let the system burning for a night... (torture test prime95 -> large fft -> 8hours @ 230 2225 1T @3v)

flashed (clearing the cmos) D27 taipan 0.3 cpc on to see if the night has changed something: nothing... lots of errors in memtest, windows wont load at any speed/timing

then today i've opened flashmenu, deselected the clear cmos then flashed D27 taipan 0.3 cpc on...

went to bios... and see that only expert settings where usable... putted the ram 220 2228 and tried memtest => badwidth higher then before (+50mb/s) so i think it's really cpc on

then i've tried also to flash the lastest D27 cpc on by tic tac (without clearing the cmos)... and also in that case everything works fine...

don't know how a similar thing is possible... but now it seems to works
i hope i can get the booster repaired soon... so i can see if the mobo can take this rams

HI,Evolutioncrazy;

The ram you pictured, is it the one listed in the block of specs?

The one in the picture is AADT, but unless I am mistaken[probably so] the specs;

M2G9JA8AMK9F081CAD

indicate a CADT ram, yours should appear as a AA4 on the last letters.

Also, what are the numbers etc on the chips? I have CADT that are 50I

If I am incorrect, could someone explain, I am very willing to learn.

i've also noticed that thing... but dunno... (the label show AA4T )

yes... this photo:


and this shoot:


are related to the same stick...

that's another thing that make me suspicious about "bad spd programming"...

i'll take out the stick and post a full quality scan in the next hour

take a look at this pic:


i've never seen CADT doing 230 2228

HI, I just got the CADT chips yesterday and have not used them yet.
I was told on another forum that they were not good chips[50I]. I am going to vmod an Albatron KX18 PRO board this afternoon and then I'll see what they do.

There is a timing difference in the two CPU-Z shots???
