Abit Aw8 + Centon = Stability Probs?

[Xtasy]

Hi,

i´m using a abit aw8 with 2 Gb centon memory, an ive a lot of stability problems. im getting one bluescreen after the other, even if i underclock the system. i think that there aere big incompatibilities with the used memory. the bios version is the newest.

Infos about the Memory:

Brand : Centon
Size : 4*512 MB
Part Number: MT47H64M8BT-37E:A
FBGA Code: D9DQW

are there existung modbios versions which are supporting my memory?

Micron D9 should do good, are you running it overclocked and how far?

[Xtasy]

the memory isnt overclocked yet. i tried running the system with only one 512 mb stick but after 5 min i get a bluescreen. i dont think that the problem can anything else than the memory. do you need some special informations? or what you think can be the cause of those problems

[Hazzan]

I think your Chipset Southbrige to hot !

Xtasy where was it you picked up this RAM? Also have you tried any other sticks to see if it is a chipset issue? I have a system at home running that has been months now and I have not had any issues and they are clocked..

Thx 4 your answers.

@hazzan

i thouched the sb an it is a little bit more than handwarm, i think about 42 degres.

@ tusacani

no it hadnt yet a chance to try with other sticks. i bought that memory in the centon webshop. a friend will lend me his mdt memory and ill test. may be it was a problem with win 2k3?

Edit

normally i should get tody 2*512 mb corsair value ddr533 to test my mainboard.

i tested my centon ram in safe mode, an there were no restarts, even when im watching a film. in normal windows mode the system restarts after a few moments if im looking a film, but i cant surf in the internet for hours without a
restart. i dont understand the world anymore -.-

[tictac]

if you can run it on safe mode... i dont think its mobo/bios problem... maybe os or driver issue....

hi, iknow now whats the problem. intels ing new hd technology makes the system unstable. i desactivated the onboard sound and the system doesnt reboot anymore...

So everything is fine now?

[Xtasy]

no, still reboots, cant overclock as i thought. im going to change that mainboard against a asus p5wd2 premium, hopefully its better, but thnik that may not be to difficult..

[Charles Wirth]

You can also try one stick at a time to see if one is defective.

[Xtasy]

i tried everything :/

well thanks guys for your help
