@ronnieskar, still looking for those specs.


Here are the specs which I've given multiple times:

ASUS M2NPV-VM Socket AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 6150 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
EVGA 512-P2-N548-TX GeForce 7600GS 512MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail
(2) Kingston 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Desktop Memory
(2) Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Manchester 2.0GHz Socket 939 Processor Model ADA3800BVBOX - Retail

Now for an update. I've found that actually I didn't have a bad mem card, the socket was bad. I switched to another socket before my gigs last week. I got through six 4 hour gigs before it crashed, only once at the end. So it's definately a memory problem whether it's the program or still a problem in my comp. But it is better now.

Just for those who responded, I don't use my DJ/KJ/VJ computer on the internet. It's strictly dedicated to my gig for which it was built.

Thanks for your responses....sorry haven't been on the forum for a week, missed some of the other responses.
 
Update....I just ran the memtest86-3.3 on my comp and got 0 errors. Looks like it must be a program problem.

A memory test may have passed - but you say your MOBO has a bad memory slot - Been in the PC business long enough that when things start to go on a MOBO or any other component then the PC as a whole is considered UN-SAFE. Anytime failure begins on a PC imminent failure of other things will occur - it the Murphy's Law of PCs . Suggest you replace the MOBO before you leave this issue to being a software issue.
 
You also need to run the memory test over night ideally. If you only let it do a few cycles, the ram doesn't generate much heat or get stressed as it would in a realistic situation.

It's interesting that your problem mainly occurs with MP3+G. Are there any tracks in specific causing the problems?
 
I ran the test for four hours. I doubt if running it over night would make a difference, though I will try just to remove all doubt. My comp runs real cool, I have 5 fans in my box and lots of air flow. The CPU hardly gets over 30* C, even during a show. As far as the Memory socket, it was bad at the very beginning, when it was brand new. Just didn't figure it out until now. So, I don't think it's a matter of the rest of the mother board going bad. The comp is a year old this month. It's taken me this long to figure it because I've been doing everything possible to try to figure out why it's crashing....everything including help desk where one of the techs went into my comp and checked it out and twicked it up and forum help. I have 4 memory slots. I'm using 2 of them.

As far as the MP3+G's, it's not specific to one file, it's random. If it was a certain file or two, I would've figured that out by now and got rid of them.

Thanks

I ran the memory test all last night (10 Hours), same result....no errors.
