memory problem

[BruceMyers48]

I bought a msi ktn2 Delta LSR Board. I installed kingston DDR3200 "KVR400X64C3A/256". Not long into a clean install of XP Home I got a stop with some type of long string like memory numbers. It did this twice so I took out the DDR3200 and replaced it with DDR2700 same Brand. The installation with on with no problems. Could this be bad memory of a mismatch for the MSI Board.THe mSI site shows kingston memory with a slightly diffent number. The only differnce is I has a C3A and the MSI site showed a C25.Thanks Bruce

Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

Most people dont look at the little label on the ram. Your board will usually default to 2.6 vdimm, while most pc3200 likes 2.7 or 2.8. In most cases, that is all that's needed to correct ram "problems".

The voltage on the memory does say 2.6. Bruce
