hey all, its been a while, and now i'm in a bit of hot soup and need some help.

my computer crashed yesterday, and i can't seem to figure out why. using the bios debug code that outputs on an LED number display on the mobo, it shows C1, which according to the troubleshooting guide means a memory problem (either L2 or RAM). I've already tested my RAM modules and swapped them with some spares i had, but that didn't solve it.

what i need is a spare AM2+ or AM3 motherboard, to test if the problem lies with the CPU. does anyone have one that i can borrow, or come to your place and test? (AM2+ preferred, as I only have DDR2 RAM on hand)

conditions of all timings and clockspeeds were default at the time of the failure (just been too busy to OC for the past few months )
