Hi,

Since building my PC I have been getting memory related BSOD crashes. I've tried all sorts of things to narrow the problem down and I think that it must either be the wrong bios settings, bad RAM or a bad motherboard.
I've run memtest and I get I got heaps of errors so I took one out and got no errors, I then took the 'good' one out and put the 'bad' one in yet I got no errors. I put both in and no errors, tried again and got heaps of errors again. It is so random.
Here are my PC specs:
GA-P55A-USR3
i7 860
G Skill F3 Ripjaws cl8d 4GB(2x2)
Seasonic x series 650w psu
WD caviar black 500gb hdd
Radeon HD5850

Here are my bios settings:

Hi and welcome to the Gigabyte Forum.

Can you post the exact model number for your memory kit please ?

I suspect that it is your memory voltage that is wrong.

You need to increase your memory voltage to 1.66v

If that doesn't work alone you will need to manually enter your timings forthe memory 8-8-8-24-2N

Your memory multiplier should be 12x

Also your Uncore should be set to 22 - 24

I'll give it a go. With the timings I can change them to 8 8 8 24 but how do I change to 2N?

Don't worry about the 2N for now as it is probably set to that anyway.
