My AXP 1800+ @ 2.2 Ghz suddenly became unstable.

Well all of a sudden everything went bad.

I first noticed the problem in championship manager 03-04.
I tried loading my game, and all sorts of errors appeared.
Then I tried a torture test with Prime95, two days ago two hours passed without errors.
This time it crapped out after one minute.
I am at 1.8V Vcore and temp is fine.

If this is what I can expect of this Thoroughbred, it will be changed to a Barton very soon.

Here is the stepping on my 1800+

Memtest, scandisk.

[mmonnin]

Yeah ditto. RAM or HDD might be going.

[MJO]

I had memtest running 1 hour+
It made 5 passes and no errors.
I guess it isn't the memory then?

Scandisk have scanned my system drive and the drive containing the game.
No errors, didn't do a physical scan though.

I will try lowering the clockspeed if the problem persists.

[MJO]

Stupid me. :rolleyes2
I have found the problem. *sigh*

I didn't have enough space on the drive that the game was installed on.
Cleared up some space, and the game i running fine. :aol:

Well at least I got my memory checked out. :crazy:

Thanks for the effort though. :p
