So, it ran for 6h 50min now for a total of 11 passes and made 0 errors! I really don't understand!

Attached some images of everest's benchmark on memories!

Bye

Obviously no ram problems then.

I honestly don`t know what else to suggest.

I guess we`re back to the problem of the cpu.

Maybe your only option now is to take the cpu out and examine the numbers on it.

This has got me totally stumped.

Regards Howard

I'm maybe gonna do that, but, for what I could understand, a Palomino should range between 1500+ and 2200+, and should always support fsb133!

Thanks very much anyway!

Yes you are correct. The 1500+ and the 2200+ both run at an fsb of 133mhz.

This is what I don`t understand.

Let me know what you find out once you take a look at the cpu.

Regards Howard

I did it!!!! :bounce: :hotbounce :giddy: !!!

The problem was that I had to lock the memory speed to 133fsb, I did it and now it runs at 1667mhz!!!

The only problem is that temperature is rising (62°c now), is it very bad? I just have a stock fan!

Thanks very much for the help! :wave:

Now it says that it's an Athlon xp 2000+!
I'm happy I was not mad when I remembered that!

Bye

Hey that`s great news mate.

Is that temp of 62°c at idle or under load?

If it`s at idle then that`s a bit hot.

Regards Howard :grinthumb

It's when light working (like surfing the net) ! If I'm risking something I will just slow down the clock!

Allright?

Go to www.cpuidle.de and install CPUIdle. Should lower temps by about 10 degrees C.
Check that you have proper thermal paste between CPU and cooler.

I'm going to install that and let you know! Thanks!

Yes, there is thermal paste between CPU and cooler, but I don't really know if it's proper. How can I?

Hey, thanks, the temperature did really go down 10°!
Great suggestion!

As long as the paste is there, and your cooler is properly mounted on the CPU, you should be fine.

Still I can't run Pcmark04, because the comp crashes, and I think that's due to the heat!

If you are OCing, turn it down to default.
Your PSU may also be too weak to sustain enough power for OC.
Get a better cooler, like from Zalman.

No, I'm not overclocking, I just want the default speed: 1667mhz. I don't know why it is so hot! I just wanted to run pcmark04 to test the stability, as I know that involves lot of work for the cpu!
