  • PC Hangs up randomly. Issues with multi-threaded testing and Test #7

    So... Let me tell you the story so far....

    Been a month that my system with a Pure Black 990FX MB was giving me BSOD once every 2 days, then started to do it everyday. Decided I had enough, took the AsRock 990FX Extreme 9 out of the box (finally you could say, since it was idling in that box for months), and do a fresh install-of-all-the-things.
    Told myself "that shoud fix it!"
    ....nope

    Before scrapping the old system I went with some testing with MemTest 86+
    version 5.1 gave me errors, I mean, LOTS of errors, on the order of 400+ errors, but only on test #7. Multithread wasn't a thing, so it ran always on CPU #0.
    Attached are some screenshots that I made with my phone's camera when I stopped the tests during the first tries believing that the ram was the issue. Then I read somewhere that test #7's errors could be related to bandwith issues between the MB and the DIMMS. So I ran more tests just to get more errors, but only on that test, #7
    I ran the tests this way: tested every single DIMM alone, then all togheter. Only test #7 gave me issues. Test #10 blocked my system entirely.
    Read somewhere that multithread support wasn't a thing on the 5.1 v of the program and that test #7 had some issues too, so I said "don't care, let's just go for the new MB at this point and test things there". So I did.
    After installing and updating every bit of windows and drivers, the pc hangs up again.. it does that usually after hours of work without issues. Randomly. And without saying a thing, like, leaving me completely clueless. It just freezes and that's it.
    So, more tests.
    Downloaded the 7.1v of MemTest 86+, and starting to run tests.
    First issues: the program doesn't like this MB too, because it only runs on CPU #0. Tried to run tests with Parallel, no way; with R.Robin, no way; sequential goes, but it doesn't switch CPU, it stays on #0, so.... pretty much that.
    And guess what, test #7. Again. Not so many issues as with the precedent MB and the precedent version of MemTest 86+, but always different addresses, completely random. I've ran multiple passes and multiple tests and every pass of every test had some address fail here and there, random fails.
    And test 13#. But only one time. Then nevermore.
    All other tests went through without a hiccup.

    Thing is: I've run BurnIn on Torture mode for the ram, 10 processes at 10% each, and guess what, the test passed, but the system froze 20 mins later; I've run the CPU on torture mode at 100% for 4 hours and trillions of operations and not a single error. I've run a Torture test with the GPU, the Ram and the CPU at 100%, and nothing.
    But it seems to me that if I leave the system alone, after 20 mins it freezes.
    I don't know what to think anymore. I thought it could be the PSU, it should crash my system under heavy load but it doesn't.
    I thought it could have been my CPU, but after stress testing it for 4 hours and no errors....meh.
    Thought it is the 32 GB of RAM, after all the errors with this test 7# in MemTest 86+, but....doesn't look like from BurnIn.

    Anyway, since I can't attach logs, here we got with copy-paste.

    Test 13 failed, but later on it didn't anymore.

      Took almost 5 hours to run only this test, while previously it took much less time after - also - running all the rest of the tests.

            We don't support MemTest86+.
            We only support MemTest86 (the original version).

            There is a bug in MemTest86+ V5.01. It produces false positives on Test #7.
            There are some details here,
            http://forum.canardpc.com/threads/10...kylake-i7-DDR4
            and here
            http://forum.canardpc.com/threads/97...ell-Server-bug
            It has been over a year since the bug was reported, but the author of Memtest86+ hasn't provided a fix as yet.

            But looking at the results from MemTest86 V7.1 you posted above, it does look like there is a problem.

            When you tested 1 stick at a time, where the results similar?

            Try going into BIOS and playing around with the RAM config. e.g.
            - Bump up the voltage very slightly
            - Try running with slightly slower timings

            Do you have a spare set of RAM from another vendor to try?

            Comment


            • #7
              Unfortunately I don't have any spare set of ram of any diff. or similar vendor
              But at least I've just fixed the "freeze up" problem: for anyone interested the solution is in these 2 hotfixes
              https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2645594 (you have to install this before the other)
              https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2646060
              Turns out it was a software problem related to some AMD CPU's architecture

              But still, I can't figure out why all those issues running MemTest86 7.1
              Could only run Tests on CPU #0 (no multithread support and/or program breaks when trying to use multiple processors at once, or a different one from 0)
              Test #7 returns different/random errors
              Test #13 took hours to run compared to a precedent testrun, returned errors only in one occasion, same ram tested with BurnIn didn't return any error after torture test.

                I would ignore the one error in test #13.
                See,
                http://www.memtest86.com/troubleshooting.htm#hammer

                Some motherboard have bugs in their UEFI BIOSs that prevent multi-threading. See,
                http://www.passmark.com/forum/memtes...election-modes
                So you can ignore that as well (until new BIOS is available).

                So I think only the errors in Test #7 are off significance, and those do look like a real hardware fault. (bad RAM being the most likely cause)

                  But if it is bad RAM then, why are those errors always in different addresses? and why the BurnIn test for the ram passed without issues? I can't understand it.
                  Every time I've run test #7, errors appeared always in different quantities and different addresses

                    RAM timings might be marginal. So errors might appear semi randomly.
                    BurnInTest runs in Windows. So not as much RAM is available for testing in Windows.
