Hi,
I am having a problem with this combiniation and would like some advice.
Problem: Both dimms are working in dual channel but I think one or both may be corrupt.
When I start the computer everything is fine but when playing a game or program that uses a large amount of RAM like GTA IV(uses 1.5GB) the game or program will crash and the screen will go black for a second and vista reports "nvlddmkm has stopped responding and has recovered" (read about it here). I first thought this issue was a problem with my Geforce GTX 260 but then I was reading that this driver error is not a particular error but just a general one. I have tried all solutions thinking something else must be wrong with my computer but then I tried the step that said to run memetest86 and other testing programs. Memtest86 came up with 7 errors in the ram after the second pass. Prime95 reports a fatal error and says the rounding was 0.5 and expected 0.4 or less. Windows memory diagnostic also reported problems. I can provide screenshots if needed.
Thanks in advance.
Specs:
Coolermaster 460W Ultimate
Asus P5P43TD
Intel Core 2 Duo 3.00Ghz 6Mb Cache
GSkill F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ
Inno3D GTX 260 Gold
Vista Ultimate x64 SP1
