Hi there,

I having some problem with my pc, but i not really sure is that ram faulty or not.

1) Sometimes, the pc will jump to blue screen... i dunno when it will happen and how, and after one or two second of blue screen it will restart .... so in that 1 or 2 sec, what i can see it "dump physical memory ??? : 87%" at the bottom screen.

2)Microsoft Office always show me an error msg after i finish use it. And i run a microsoft diagnostic test ... they show me memory error and suggest me to take a Windows Memory Diagnostic Test

3)Run Windows Memory Diagnostic Test -- result show there is error. but dunno what... tell me to call manufacturer

4)Boot Memtest yesterday midnight 12am.... and leave it until 2:15am .... the test still running(not stuck..its still going) !!!! on Test# 7.. but i decided to shut off coz i not sure is that any problem to run that long.

I can see that you overclocked your RAMs. Try to put back the RAMs to it's original speed and see if the errors happen.

If no errors after changing the RAM speed to original speed, it means the RAMs just cannot take that overclocked speed. You can then reduce the overclocked speed a bit and test if it is stable. Or read further on the overclocking threads for ways to stabilize the RAMs at overclocked speeds.

probably an after effect of the overclocked ram / system.
have you try clearing the cmos, re-set and restart the system?
if possible, post the blue screen error here too.

i did restart the system... but i not sure anythings about the cmos..

i dun think i got any chance to post the blue screen error... coz as i said, it only appear for 1 second then restart.... so what i can only see is the physical error : <counting 1 to 100%> ....

most probably ram faulty already go RMA if it's still underwarranty.

If you have access to other people's computer, use memtest there to be sure really ram problem. Test the ram 1 piece at a time if more than 1 piece.

What about your FSB? Have you set it back to original speed at 333 MHz?
