Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
Interesting. I have to say, I've only ever had these types of issues on Corsair RAM. Never seen it with Kingston or any other brand before.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
Wouldn't it be dependent on the RAM ICs then, and not the brand? Kingston and Corsair use different brands AFAIK, but Crucial always uses Micron (Because Crucial is Micron). Maybe he was refering to the hammer test failing on all DDR3?
And then I'd be curious about DDR2...Comment

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
That setting was known as tRFC in the DDR2 days. And yes, i've had the same kind of issue with Corsair RAM. Hence why i reverted to buying the cheapest RAM i can find for the desired speed. My first time buying Corsair memory was also my last.Originally posted by PeteS in CARemember that by the time consequences of a short-sighted decision are experienced, the idiot who made the bad decision may have already been promoted or moved on to a better job at another company.Comment

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
To me, it looks like all motherboard makers set the wrong DDR 3 refresh rate interval setting by default.
It looks like the default setting results in the RAM not getting refreshed enough.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
This problem occurs with *all* DDR 3!
The only possible exception is with the new HyperX Savage DDR 3.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
In that case there's a utility to re-write the SPD... It can do this in place with the RAM installed. It used to be free, but now he's charging for it.Comment

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
There is also ECC memory to consider.
From what I remember reading when Rowhammer was first discussed this is more a worry for Linux users rather than Windows as most Windows users run as admins anyway.Last edited by diif; 05-19-2015, 12:13 AM.Comment

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
Hm, I've never had issues with using DDR3 so far, but I haven't done any fancy memtest things or the like.
Could it be improper design of the memory chips, or the PCB itself? (High speeds need controlled trace length and impedance...)

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
Crucial with their Ballistix series, loved to overvolt DDR 2 to 2.1 V or 2.2 V, IIRC.
Micron's D9-family DDR 2 chips reportedly failed like XBox 360s!Last edited by RJARRRPCGP; 05-23-2015, 06:12 PM.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: Fix for DDR 3 rowhammer corruption issue found!
all I know is this. I've used GSkill for all my customers. Only bad stick i've had was DDR2. No stability issues related to memory on any of themCap Datasheet Depot: http://www.paullinebarger.net/DS/

by GrouickmanHi there,
First, I'm not sure it's the right section to post for this type of device, but could not think of something better.
Ok, so my son (a mechanic) bought a faulty Hofmann Geodyna 6300 wheel balancer (which appears to be mostly a re-branded Snap-on wheel balancer).
I'm looking for any resources (doc, manuals, schematics) that would be available for this device or anyone that would have any knowledge on this particular device (or its Snap-On equivalent).
I'm trying to diagnose the fault(s ?), but I can't find any schematic (appart from the... -
by ugamazingI have three identical-spec 820-01700 boards (2.6/32/512), and ALL THREE boards came to us with the same fault, from different sources: The boards don't wake from hibernation with the keyboard or lid, they ONLY wake when you press the power button. I understand this is a very minor issue, but the boards must be fixed!
We will of course begin with the obvious (checking lid signals), but I couldn't help but notice these three boards were all 32GB variants. Has anyone noticed an issue relating to these 32GB boards in particular? I of course don't think it's a RAM issue, but it's bizarre... -

Hello guys!
I have a strange issue with my laptop keyboard and I'm lost trying to detect what's wrong - the KB9028Q-C or the keyboard itself.
It powers on OK and has no other issues except the following:- CAPS LOCK does not work at all
- Fn button toggles Flight Mode
- When I press 't' or '5', it produces 't5', and when I press 'y' or '6', it produces 'y6'
- (with SHIFT pressed: 't%' and 'y^' respectively)
but when I press and hold...06-27-2025, 01:10 AM -
Hello everyone,
I'm experiencing an issue with my Alienware 15 R2 (Service Tag: DL7NN32). The laptop works perfectly when connected to the AC adapter — it powers on and functions normally. However, the battery does not charge. If I disconnect the DC adapter, the laptop shuts down immediately, as the battery is at 0%. I have replaced the battery with a new compatible one, but the issue persists. I also replaced the AC adapter with a compatible one, but the battery still doesn't charge.
To assist with troubleshooting, I'm attaching two power circuit schematics:- Power

by SuperJamesThis one's a weird one, and still unsolved despite it having gone back to Dell once.
Specs
i7-8750H, GTX 1060 Max Q, 500GB SSD & Seagate 7mm 1TB HDD. 17.3 IPS screen. This has the fingerprint reader in the power button.
Backstory
I bought this from eBay, from a wallpapering shop. £650 in 2020 which was a good price considering it's a gaming laptop. Physically it's in perfect shape, apart from the hinge mounts on the palmrest failing in the time I've had it (I have a new palmrest for it). The usual thin plastic crap modern build quality!...10-23-2023, 04:09 PM - Loading...
