Hi everyone,
I have built a Gigabyte UD5H based configuration and it is constantly crashing (BSOD) in Windows 7. I think it is related to BIOS settings related to RAM.
With G.Skill 16GB installed (F3-12800CL9Q-16GBBZL), memtest86 gave me errors.
I tried RAM under Optimized Default settings under BIOS and also under supported XMP profiles. In all situations I get errors using memtest86 and prime95. Here is my configuration:
Famous (infamous) UD5H board
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL9Q-16GBBZL
BIOS: F14
SSD: Intel 520 120 GB for system
OS: Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium
PSU: 750 Watts (Antec)
No graphics card
Graphics memory: set at 512 MB
One WD Book: 1 TB USB 2 drive connected
Case: Corsair 550D (avoid it if you can)
No overclocking, everything left at "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS
The OS starts fine, I can use the computer fine and then all of a sudden, BSOD. I have lost more than a few hairs. Can someone provide some insights please?
Do I need to make specific settings in BIOS for RAM to work correctly? Could it be a bad RAM stick or a MOBO? How can I tell? Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Bobby
