]hi all and merry christmas .i have a motherboad model ga8ik1100 rev 2 windows xp . ,pent 4 2,8 HT ,1gb ram(2 *512). before some time i installed 2 more 512 rams ...=>unstable system[/URL].all rams are double sided(in the manual says that i can install 4 double sided rams in the slots).the first two pc3200 i don't know the model ,the two new pc3200(kingston).so all rams are pc3200 same mHZ.the problem is that system makes auto reboot and blue screens (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL).the bios version is fj and the motherboard have 6 memory slots.i use 1-4 , 2-5 dual channel.if the rams are the problem is there any way i can fix that problem??from bios perhaps...... thanks! :)

Re: need help :)
Did you ever update your BIOS as I suggested to you here? >>>
Do you have your ram voltage set properly in the BIOS? IS this the same brand and model of ram? If not they may not work together at all -
Re: need help :)
i flashed the bios from dos with a file named flash867 and then i install the fJ. i have the correct and newest version of bios for me motherboard.
Do you have your ram voltage set properly in the BIOS? ---> i don't know how to do that... can i check it from everest(program) if the voltage
are correct???
they are not the same model...2 seitec and 2 kingston all double sided.

Re: need help :)
Well for starters as said above they may never work together, and likely wont be stable at any respectable setting.
The voltage is in the Freq/Voltage Control Section of your BIOS, you can set it from there easily. Here is what that page looks like with the ram voltage setting circled >>>
2.5V is the default voltage
You will need to look in CPU-z in the SPD Tab for each stick to see what the voltage should be for each type, or look on the ram sticker if it says.
In everest if you want to see what voltage is being used you need to look in the Computer, then Sensor section and see what it shows for DIMM.
If you want, please post me pics of CPU-z Memory tab, and then one image of each set of ram (Like Slot 1+3 so I can see each different models SPD info) SPD Tab imagesComment

Re: need help :)
today i had 4 blue screens in 2 hours.now about bios ver.i am sure that i had update it to the latest version (fJ) before 3 months maybe more but cpu-z says that i have fA.maybe it reads the alternative bios.this motherboard has dual bios.as u see the cpu temp touching 72 c but as i remember this is happening over 4 years.maybe one of the 2 bios is f(something )but when i open the pc says FJ :)Comment

Re: need help :)
i just run a mem test with a memory diagnostic tool and find some errors

Re: need help :)
About your BIOS version, please go into the BIOS and on the MAIN page press F9 you will then see the correct version. I would assume CPU-z is correct and maybe that is either a old Everest or it just is not reading your board correctly
Errors at 1% is bad! Can you test this ram one stick at a time with Memtest86+ >>
Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool
Could be a bad stick or more, or just because you are mixing ram which is not advised for this reason
Your voltage should be fine on Auto as both say 2.5V for the same speeds
I would just not be mixing the ram for sure. And test them one by one to see if any are bad, if they all pass 5-10 passes each then you know they are good but just cannot be mixedComment

Re: need help :)
i reinstall all rams yesterday.i flashed again both bios with the correct version and ran the pmem test program (to read full ram this time).the pc is open without rr 1,5 day and the mem test aplication found 2 errors somewhere at 15.000 % ...weird huh? :) i mean it should finish at 100% but it keept going and going so i close it . as for the memtest86 tool.i ran it yesterday with all rams up.i was waiting for 2 hours but didn't finished so i closed that too :)Comment
