Hi All,
I bought a gig of Crucial Ballistix RAM a few months ago for use in my Athlon socket 939 system. After a month of iwning it, my OS became corrupted. It turned out it was because of insufficient voltage. I changed the voltage, and everything was fine. Mem test went with no errors, no software corruption of any kind, everything was great.
Until tonight. I noticed a couple of my programs seemed slower in responding. I decided to run mem test, and sure enough I got dozens of erros in a matter of minutes. I looked at my memory configuration, and everything was in line with Crucials specs.
I tried a variety of cas latencies, and nothing has worked so far. I've read around, and many people have reported problems with this particular brand of ram.
I really don't want to lose all my data, again. And, I hate to have send this back because that means no pc for awhile. I'm hoping someone, somewhere has an idea of how I can fix this with a settings change or something.
Thanks for your time.
