  • pc 12800 f3-12800CL9D-4GBRL with Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3P

    Hi!
    I have motherboard Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3P with G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL

    The computer is new, I mean, 5 days and I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bits. I've recieved like 5 blue screen errors, like memory management and others.

    I've run memtest86 with dual channel and I've recieved like 23 errors in one hour of test.
    Then I've run 2gb single memtest and everything went fine, no errors.
    Then, 4gb single channel and ok, no errors.
    At latst, I repeat 4g dual channel 2 hours test and everything was ok, no errors.

    My model of memory isn't on Gigabyte's official compatible memory list (they say they made the list with some memories because they can't take all there is in the market, wel...)

    But Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3P is on G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL qualified motherboard list, so...

    What cant you tell me about all this mess?
    I mean, official Gigabyte's memory list vs Gskill motherboards list.

    I'm kinda lost, I'm tired of blue screen and I want to know if my memories are compatible with my motherboard.

    Thanks!

    Clear your CMOS.

    Load BIOS default values.

    Go to Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker (M.I.T) menu and load XMP profile.

    Save changes, reboot and re-run Memtest with both modules installed and running in dual channel mode.

    Let us know the results.

      Thanks!
      I'm not sure I'm able to do all that stuff, I don't even know how to clear cmos, of course I can take a look at google but I'm not sure.

        When you power on your computer, press the DEL key to enter BIOS. You will then see a MIT section. If you enter that, look for Extreme Memory Profile. Enable that. F10, save and exit, then see how it runs.

        Your motherboard user's manual will also have details about this and how to navigate through BIOS.

        Thank you

          Thanks
          A couple of questions:
          1) If I do the things you've told me and it doesn't work, can I get back to the status I was before, I mean like right now?
          2) XMP is overclocking? Is it bad? You can see I'm a newbie.

          Thanks

            The XMP setting only changes the settings required to run the memory at it's specified speed, timings and voltages. You should consider it tweaking more-so than overclocking.

            And yes, you can revert to where you currently are if the XMP profile doesn't work. But I bet that it does.

              Hi!
              I made that bios thing, but keep on getting blue screen problems.
              I'm very disappointed.
              MY computer is all bran new, with very really good hardware quality but memory keep on failing.
              I won't cry

                Test one at a time to see if one performs differently than the other. If so, send them in for new replacements and the new kit should work better.

                Thank you

                  Unusual that the XMP Profile didn't work for you. If you want you can post up a template or pics of your BIOS settings and let us take a look at them. Strange that they work fine in single channel mode but won't work in dual channel mode.
