my computer is a huge asshole.
When i turn it on, if it manages to turn on it freezes when it starts to load windows. and when i try to run windows in safe mode it often times doesn't even get that far and restarts. I have, however, managed to get it to give me a BSOD every now and then when i try to run windows in safe mode. it gives me the old "PFN_LIST_CORRUPT" error. I had this same problem a couple months ago and after trying a bunch of different memory configurations i just put it back to the same configuration it was in and for some reason it worked. Can anyone tell me what's going on, or what I should do? I tried moving the memory around a bunch, i tried each stick, none works any better than any other. should i try increasing the voltage? changing the timings? my ram is supposed to run at 2-2-2-5. what should i change it to if i do change the timings? any suggestions?
thanks in advance.
 
Are you trying to run in dual channel mode? how about updating the BIOS, I have gotten the pfn corrupt before when trying to run dual channel, and whenever I updated my BIOS it worked perfectly.
 
i've tried running the ram in every configuration possible. I'll try updating the BIOS.
 
bump for anyluck? Or if anyone else has any suggestions, I would like to know what the solution to the prob is!
 
no luck so far. I tried updating the BIOS but I've had a bunch of trouble there. I can't get the BIOS to update. anyone have any suggestions other than updating the BIOS? I've tried different memory and a different hard drive. anybody?
