i was looking in the event viewer on win 7 cr 64 bit and found a lot of warning's that say
A corrected hardware error has occurred.

Component: AMD Northbridge
Error Source: Corrected Machine Check
Error Type: 28
Processor ID: 0
the source is wea-logger event id 21 does this mean my northbridge is bad or what does it mean? could this be the reason why i cant get my ram to 1066? when i do it crashes.
 
Has the computer randomly shut down or it runs just in the back ground Win 7 fixes the issue? I will have to take a look and see if it has been doing the same for my rig. I have my memory at 1066 and 2600 for the northbridge. Have you overclocked the northbridge at all? If so how much volts you use? You can’t reach 1066 by setting it into BIOS or overclocking your BUS speed?

I am sure some one has the same board you have can help out. Those are just questions I was wondering maybe could help some one diagnose your problem.
 
right now everything is at stock except the ddr2 volt i have that set to 2.1 volts my system will only run at stock memory is 800 5,5,5,18 2t
 
that mobo comes with a led panel that tell critical info about the board, look for a code on your led thingy and then on the manual or asus website/techsupport.
 
What makes no sense is that the motherbaord doesn't have an AMD northbidge. Are your chipset drivers up to date?
 
Wow good catch Erocker :rockout:That may be the issue :respect:

ya i have the lates chipset drivers maybe its rong becouse im on win 7 rc 64 bit.
 
Could be since it is a test OS very odd though indeed. I am using Win 7 also I think I will go back to Vista 64 for a few weeks. Since my system ran fine on Vista. You still cant get your memory to run at 1066?
 
well i booted into vista 32 bit and in there the event id is 19 for the whea-loger and this is what it say's

Tried running some Memtest?
4 individual sessions with ~900MB assigned to each should do it.

The board doesn't, but CPU does have an AMD northbridge in it...
