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".

The loving are the daring!
