Your help is needed, Wierdest error ever!

[PSX2000]

I have been getting this error a awful lot latley with random programs . Mostly games .


I noticed though when i change my settings to COMPATIBLE WITH WIN 98 they don't bomb.


I am running a
ASUS P4-E-800 DELUXE
P4 3.0 GHZ 800 FSB
512 x 2 sticks of KINGSTON HYPER X DDR 400 MEMORY
2 RAPTOR 10,000 RPM DRIVES
RADEON 9800 PRO 256 MB version


And everything is water cooled.


I was curious what is the problem or what could be the problem?

I have reinstalled windows clean 2 times and I am not sure why I get this .

Attached below is a screen shot of the error.

Thanks if anyone can help me , I will greatly appreciate it.

You might want to try looking at the error codes and go to the M$ knowledge base web site, there is a lot of use full information there, also they post known bugs with games and such

That error points to a hardware failure which is likely caused by a device driver or lack of voltage.

Ya don't have any fans powered by the mobo do ya? :?:

[PSX2000]

No , 0 fans powered by the mobo. Im curious as to why.... I am running a 500 watt power supply... All the fans power from straight connectors. Not 1 fan goes to the mobo.

I changed the voltage to my memory and did a clean install of windows . The sticks of memory I run ask for 2.6 V so i manually set the bios to 2.65 seeing thats the closet setting they had to 6.

The other was 2.7

Im curious anyone know what the proper voltage in the bios is for a RADEON 9800 PRO 256 MB version?



minibubba: Sorry about that , I won't let that happen again.

did you try setting paging file to none and then setting it back to your desired size?

No but I will try that now.

Any tips on why this might be the reason or how this should help? Im rather curious.

BTW what should my page file size be?

I have 2 sticks of 512 MB ddr400 Memory.


Thanks , for the help.

Just let Windows handle the file itself to start with (then read PI's XP Tweak Guides) but I'd suggest that ya give Memtest86 a run (just a hunch).

Sorry to sound like a noob but whats the url to PI's tweak guides? I did the step you told me about.

I was curious if you also happen to know whats the proper voltage on the Radeon 9800 PRO 256 Mb version.
