Is it as simple as timing my EP45-DS3R with Mushkins

Re: Is it as simple as timing my EP45-DS3R with Mushkins

Currently about 50% of the time I get a BSOD at startup and about 25% of the time I shutdown I get a BSOD. Once in a great while I get bumped to desktop from Battlefield 2. A new thing I noticed is sometimes in videos it switches to slow motion then returns to normal speed…..
Lsdmeasap, I really appreciate the help and I would love to know what all these timings do, working on that. Is there a post that details the best course of action in tweaking or troubleshooting? For instance, should I play with the memory multiplier before I play with the drive strength? Also, any suggestions to correct my current issues? My plan now is to get my comp running smoothly then try to OC it just a little bit to teach myself how all these timings come into play…
Thanks again

Do you use external USB devices? If not disable legacy USB storage detect.

As for what each setting is, have you read the memory sticky? Drive strength I am not sure about what it really does, but I do know one above ram speed is usually better but if you are close to the lower one the higher may not work

Memory multi only changes your Memory speed, self explanatory really. It is FSB (CPU Host Freq) x Memory Multi = Ram Freq

Are you using the newest BIOS?

Set all these to Auto and yes it is there. Same applies to above, it will be above the first setting. Like above the value of 1
