 Thread : Memory errors after flashing Bios! (PLEASE help)
 
Profile: newbie
More Information

Motherboard:  MSI K8T Neo FIS2R
RAM: 2 sticks of 512MB DDR Corsair Memory (TWINX1024-3200XLPT) 400 MHz
 
Memtest86 has showed numerous errors!
All errors seem to be in locations >512MB!
 
Recently the MSI Live Monitor utility had me update my BIOS to version 2.0.  After this update I began to receive numerous "memory could not be "read" " errors.  I flashed my BIOS to a previous version "1.1" and the number of errors declined dramatically, yet still exist.  Is this purely a BIOS error or has one of my sticks of RAM gone bad?  Please
help me fix this!  Thank you.

What happens when you test a single module?  
 
And also in different slots?

Maybe need to up the voltages a little for stability.
 
Are they running at 2.7V ?
 
You might also check if the timings are at "SPD".

Sometimes after flashing with a new BIOS everything needs to be manually reset then reconfigure to work properly.
