    Seems to be a safe mode issues. Other apps have the same problem.

    e.g.

    Thanks for the suggestions, but still no luck.

    I tried right-clicking on the shortcut and running as the admin. Instead of getting the error, nothing happens. In task manager, I see the executable appear and disappear.

    Any other thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    You need to be admin. Also you can have this problem when running from a removable drive (the O/S will refuse to load the device driver).

    Not sure about the behavior in safe mode.

    You must use the 64bit release on a 64bit O/S and the 32bit release on a 32bit O/S.

    I'm getting the following error when I try to run RAMMon:

    Error: SPDINFO_INIT_DIRECTIO
    DirectIO.sys load error.
    There was an error loading DirectIO.sys.


    I've tried both 32 and 64-bit versions, reinstalling, and running Windows (Vista Home Premium 64-bit) in Safe Mode.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    We have a new release of RAMMon available. Release V1.0 build 1002.

    This release now supports XMP and EPP.
    XMP has been tested on a few different RAM sticks and should be OK. EPP hasn't been tested as well.

    maybe your missing EPP too?

    The log didn't show what we were expecting for the XMP data. We are going to go out an purchase some XMP RAM and have a play with it.

If you can, please run the test program and send us back the resulting log file (SysInfoLog.txt), it would be greatly appreciated!
    Here is a link to the log file. Sysinfo was run on the Patriot DDR3 1600EL see my sig. I'm not using the XPM profile BTW. It seems to be a no no if overclocking. http://www.4shared.com/document/cglIgLUl/SysInfoLog.html

    To be honest we had never even heard of XMP
    This is desipte a month or so of reading the JEDEC and other specs and testing on about 30 machines.

    We have a look and might get back to you to collect some logs.

    Nice! I tried it on my new build (see sig) and it works OK. It does not seem to pickup the XMP memory profile for my memory though. The XMP profile on my memory is 9-9-9-24 T2 @ 1600. RamMon shows timings at max frequency to be 7-7-7-20. I would guess RamMon does not understand XMP profiles?

  • New product release - RAMMon display everything about your DDR2 and DDR3 ram

    We are pleased to announce today the release of RAMMon. RAMMon is an easy to use Windows based application that allows users to quickly retrieve the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data from their RAM modules. It will allow users to identify a multitude of attributes, of which, includes the manufacturer, the clockspeed and other data of their DDR2, DDR3 memory devices and even some older memory types. It uses SysInfo DLL SDK to gather the SPD attributes from RAM devices. This information provides a snapshot of the available data for each RAM module installed on the system.


    You can download RAMMon here. It is free for personal use.
