Memtest errors and everything else Fixed!!

Hey all...Well, if u read a few posts down I was having problems and getting frustrated with errors and some bsods I had been getting lately with my new 2 gig patriot ram...I had bumped voltage up to max and tried everything, and after getting only through 9 minutes of Prime95 until I got a fatal error, I was about to throw in the towel and RMA this crap back to Patriot....But, I thought about it for awhile, and decided to change 1 thing back b4 I Rma'd....

I reverted back to default 2t command thinking perhaps the 2 gigs was a little to much for the mem controller and mobo to deal with using a 1T command rate, and I guess I was right, becuase I just got through 5 hours of Prime w\o a hiccup! I guess even though these sticks are rated for 1T, using 2 gigs and a 2t command rate is overall more stable...At this point I'd take stability over a 1000 bandwith increase in sisoft sandra anyhow...So, if any1 is having stability issues, and u can't pinpoint it, try the 2T command and perhaps it will iron out your issues with memory errors...L8r

might be an issue with the board. but good point. 2T vs 1T is not much in real world performance
