managed to snap this photo before it restarted.
had 2 or 3 seconds, a little dirty.

You really need to post your full computer specs. A lot of BSOD's are caused by RAM problems. Did you manually set the RAM timings and voltage to the manufacturers specs in the BIOS? Have you run memtest86+ overnight to test for RAM errors?

 

[ourselfish]

I did not set the ram timings. I have not run memtest.

what other info should I post?

Your RAM isn't running at the right specs. You should manually set the RAM to run at 5-5-5-15 timings at 2.1v - 2.3v according to the specs you linked to. That RAM runs at pretty high voltages (the DDR2 standard is 1.8v) and may not be getting enough voltage to run correctly using AUTO settings in the BIOS. You also need to run memtest86+ to test for RAM errors. Running four sticks of RAM is harder on your motherboard than two sticks. You may even need to bump the Northbridge voltage up a notch to stabilize the system. I'd just start off getting the RAM running at its specified settings, though.

 

[ourselfish]

Let me open my manual here.
Where should I put these settings-

Cell menu options include
Advance Dram Settings
Configure Dram by SPD 5-5-5-15 goes here?
tRCD
tRP <
tRAS < or in here somewhere?
tRFC <
tWR
tWTR
tRRD
tRTP
MEMORY-Z <-or here

 

[shortstuff_mt]

The middle one is correct. The CPU-Z screenshot you posted actually shows you what settings are what. The RAM is currently being run at 5-7-7-20 according to CPU-Z.

CAS# Latency CL (5)
tRCD (5)
tRP (5)
tRAS (15)

There will also be a place to set the RAM voltage. Be sure to set it to at least 2.1v. You may even need to bump it up to 2.2v or 2.3v since the RAM is rated to those voltages and 4 sticks of RAM often need more voltage than 2.

 

[ourselfish]

what will the voltage setting look like?

"wow awesome."

there are some voltage settings but they are read only, according to the manual

Also FSB Dram ratio can be set to 1:2.00 sets it to 1332
Set at auto or 1333:1066 -1067 which is the same as auto

 

[shortstuff_mt]

I don't know what your motherboard model is. I probably won't be a lot of help with it anyway since I've avoided MSI for quite a few years. The manual should show where to change the DDR2 voltage. Could you post the "Mainboard" and "SPD" tabs from CPU-Z? That should show your motherboard model and more info on the RAM.

 

[ourselfish]

Alright then thanks for all the help.
MSI P45 Platinum

 

[shortstuff_mt]

So the system isn't getting a BSOD any more? That's great! Hopefully people with similar problems will read this thread.

 

[ourselfish]

unfortunately it is.

 

[ourselfish]

Didnt solve the problem just got the same error again and a crash caused by flash.
and the ram, Im going to have to find the Dram voltage setting

noticed this in the bios

DRAM Voltage is in the RED "Unreccommended Settings"
MCH Voltage in the RED

http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/msi_p45_platinum/5.htm

ok got it set it 2.220

got this error with out the bsod

had to close groupmanager.exe from the log on in msconfig possibly infected with mal-ware.
this process should not have been starting on boot.

Detected an outgoing signal and blocked that too.
But this topic is about something different.

Ill post again if the BSoD occurs again.

 

[shortstuff_mt]

It's pretty hard to read that screenshot, but your DRAM voltage should be at least 2.1v. It looks to me like it's 2.04v or something. The MCH voltage can probably be set to "Auto" for now.

Am I properly Utilizing my memory- or can i get more out of what I have already installed.

OK just got it again. set the MCH to 1.34

Other notes:

Cpu Clocked to 3.0 manually
And the bios freezes when i try to enter the E.P.P settings.

Both IE and Mozilla are crashing now,

Non specific hardware issue detected with Vista Memory Utility.
running mem test.
