last time i had a cpu0 panic now its a 4 but still no go

then write this
-v cpus=1 busratio=??? see in bios it must be set on number no on auto. maxmem=4096 arch=i386 and try boot

 

[bg3po]

Are you OC'ing? I've found that when OC'ing and using 6 sticks of RAM on my X58A-UD5 I have to change RAM settings.

i was just on the optimized setting in bios but no additional adjustments. im now back dow to 4 and seemed to have messed somthing up cause its panicing now i think maybe a bad stick im gonna keep swapping sticks and rebooting to see ....what did you have to set your ram settings to the ram i have is in my sig ....im gonna try my voltage maybe my 480 is drawing tomuch power from my TT850 and its not getting proper current ?now im rambling tanks
