I just purchased a new motherboard, CPU, and video card, built the
system, ran memtest86 and I'm getting memory errors.
I purchased:
Athlon X64 3000+ CPU
Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-SLI
Radeon X550
P180 Case
From my old system I scavenged:
Antec NeoPower 480W power supply
2xWD Raptor 36.7GB
1xSeagate 400GB
4xKingston 512MB PC3200 400MHz
1xSound Blaster Audigy 2 Live
2xDVD drives
I let memtest86 run for over a dozen passes on the old system within the
last month or so after I shuffled some RAM around, so I tend to suspect
that the RAM is good, but I'm not really sure where to start
troubleshooting the new system.
I'm thinking my first step should be to try removing all but one stick,
and if that doesn't show any problems, try that one stick in each slot
and see if I can narrow it down to a slot. If not, try each piece of
RAM in the first slot and see if I can identify a piece of RAM.
Am I missing anything obvious or is that the way to go?
