Asus motherboard M4A88T-M problems

Forum Motherboards & Memory : Asus Asus motherboard M4A88T-M problems

Word :    Username :           
 

I just finished a PC build with the Asus M4A88T-M, AMD X4 960T processor, with 4 GB DDR3 ram and new CoolerMaster 500 W.
Everything went fine until the Win XP Pro install. At the driver phase of the install, the system hangs with the following error message:

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

(Technical info on error = STOP 0x0000000A (0x00000010, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x80523E78)

It recommends to disable memory caching or shadowing.

How to I disable these. Will this help given the error message? Any other recommendations?

BTW - the system runs fine under LINUX

It is likely you have some bad ram or a memory incompatibility. Test your memory using memtest86+.

BTW, those suggestions to disable shadowing caching and shadowing are legacy messages that really don't apply anymore.
