Rowan Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Hey there, I have assembled a system unit Jetway P4M800PRO-P Motherboard with Intel Pentium D 3.0 GHz and TwinMos 512MB DDR2, I installed with Windows XP Professional SP2. But it will auto-restart when I'm typing documents or listening MP3.I found out that Windows got bugcheck with memory address in Event Viewer from Administrative Tool. Does it caused by motherboard which is not supporting Dual-Core Proccesser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 well first off update your bios. then download memtest86 and test out your memory for any errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shindo_Hikaru Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Update your BIOS, and ensure you have the latests chipset drivers if appliacable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitroshift Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I go here with ripken. run memtest and see if your ram is working properly. also, i know jetways are making (sometimes) crap mobo's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 I ran memtest86 from Hiren 8.2. I leave this pc for 3 hours and the result are passed, no fail. I guess mobo is really **** bad. I will try update BIOS, although I don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender341 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 you may also want to check that your PSU is up to the task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowan Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 you may also want to check that your PSU is up to the task.You mean Power Supply Unit, right? I tried to change different PSU but still no good. I will try use Pentium D 2.66 whether it still can restart or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 u really need to do that bios update. any bios from last year will have problems with pentium D. i cant seem to find that board on their site tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 That board normally comes with BIOS that will support the Pentium D, even the first release. I only thing I could think of, is an incompatible problem with the RAM. To solve this you could flash the BIOS but:My question to Rowan is: What type of RAM is it besides TwinMOS 512MB DDR2?

Rowan Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 My question to Rowan is: What type of RAM is it besides TwinMOS 512MB DDR2?Huh? You mean more detail on TwinMos 512MB DDR2 RAM? You have to refer TwinMOS website. That's all I can do, sorry puntoMX.BTW, I found out that it won't restart as I replaced it with Pentium D 2.66 GHz, funny right? I know how to update BIOS but only thing I afraid of is update bios unsuccessful and cause motherboard become a piece of junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Well, I hope you know what speed that DDR2 DIMM of yours is?Just flash the BIOS, don´t be scared. You also have waranty on it don´t you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 upgrade the bios! and the problem with that new cpu is that you may have to reset the cmos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 (edited) Well, I hope you know what speed that DDR2 DIMM of yours is?Just flash the BIOS, don´t be scared. You also have waranty on it don´t you?RAM speed is 533 MHz. And motherboard does have warranty.upgrade the bios! and the problem with that new cpu is that you may have to reset the cmos.My pal have updated BIOS, load CMOS default, but the result is still remain same . I give up this mobo and I am going to use Gigabyte MOBO from now.Thanks for your helps . Edited August 11, 2006 by Rowan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
