DRAM timing too tightly - reload timing

Hi
I've been through all previous threads on this subject, but cannot find a solution suitable for myself.
I'd been using my pc without problems for several weeks until last night when it failed to boot up, hanging on the pre-BIOS screen. I rebooted and got the message "DRAM is too tightly so reload timing". It then hangs again when a key is pressed and I'm unable to boot in Safe Mode.
I've definitely not altered any settings and not overclocked, so can't see why this is suddenly happening.
Any ideas?

A couple days ago my computer starting doing the same thing. I am not at it currently so I can't get the required specs.
The first time I just started to transfer a CD onto my harddrive and my computer auto rebooted. Didn't see any odd messages so I just let it reboot. I restarted all apps I had running and started the CD transfer again and it rebooted. This time I saw the "Dram timing too tightly loaded" message in the bios. I went and checked my bios settings and they seemed to be ok. DRAM set to auto, DDR timing set to "By SPD" and DDR voltage 2.5V. I did bump the DDR voltage up to 2.7V but I am still getting the same message.
I tried changing all these setting to what other threads have been recommending but still didn't work.
CAS# Latency:
RAS# Precharge:
RAS to CAS Delay:
Precharge Delay:
Burst Length:
Before this started my computer has been running perfectly for months. I just don't understand how it can start flaking out all of a sudden since I have not done any changes. And the reboots don't seem to be consistent other then when I am running a lot of memory intensive apps.

DRAM wound too tight??????? Neo 865PE Board Advice needed

RapidShare Account-ID: 14334524

First - My computer is normally rock solid with no problems.
I turned my computer on today and it would not even boot to the BIOS.
It was if there was no power going into it but then it started to boot for about 1 second
then died. I tried again and the same thing kept happening.
I opened it up, checked the Main Board, reseated the graphics card and power cables.
This time it booted but before the bios kicked in it gave the following message:
'DRAM is wound too tight'.
I have not changed anything in the BIOS as I would not know what to change but
it then booted to the BIOS and under the power settings it says the following:
Dynamic Over Clocking = Private
Performance Mode = Slow
CPU Ratio Selection = Locked
DRAM Frequency = Auto
Spread Spectrum = Disabled
Adjust CPU Bus Clock(mhz) = 200
DDR Clock (mhz) = 333
Adjust AGP/PCI Clock (mhz) = 66.66/33.33
CPU VCORE Adjust = No
DDR Power Voltage = 2.50v
?GP Power Voltage = 1.50v
If anyone can make any suggestions I would be most appreciative as I cannot
afford to loose my computer or any data that is on it.
I'm worried that the Main Board maybe failing or maybe the RAM or PSU?
In case it matters this is what is in my system.

Thanks in advance.

thanks for the replys everyone.
I take it then that my problem is the PSU?
I am shocked that you rate the Q-Tec one so badly, it is the one that was supplied
with my computer and has worked with out a problem for about 3 years or so now.
I cant take a chance with it so its going in the bin.
Having done some checking I have located a trusted stockest who has
Corsair VX 550W ATX Power Supply (CMPSU-550VXUK) [CMPSU-550VXUK]
or
Corsair TX 650W ATX SLi Compliant Power Supply (CMPSU-650TXUK) [CMPSU-650TXUK]
for just ubder £80 in the UK.
Are either of these any good and is one better for me than the other considering what
main board I have. Also the new CPU has got to fit in my computer case so its physical size must match the old one.
I am not a modder so this is all a bit alien to me so any tips or hints much appreciated.
Thanks again

DRAM loaded to tightly

Occasionally when I am viewing a DVD or listening to music with Windows Media Player and I do something else, the computer shuts down. If I turn it on immediately, it won't work. Give it about 20 minutes, and the BIOS screen will pop up. It will say DRAM loaded too tightly and ask me to press a key. The last two times my system shut off, I haven't gotten that message. Is it the same problem and what do I do to correct it?

Are you setting the DRAM Timings manually or using SPD??
What is your DDR Voltage set to? I know that I had to up mine a bit for stability. 2.65V seems to be the "sweet spot" on this board. I have tried everything from 2.5 to 2.9V and 2.65 seems to be the best all around for stability and performance...
Also check DOT Settings as it may be trying to OC your memory which can cause timing issues if they are set too tight as well as your memory performance settings (i.e. Turbo, Ultra-Turbo)

MSI 875P FISR - 'DRAM timing is too tightly so reload timing'

'DRAM timing is too tightly so reload timing'
I recently got this message upon bootup. I have an MSI 875 P and I have 2 Gigs of Kingston RAM. I am wondering what would cause this message to come up out of nowhere. I was had the DRAM Timing by SPD Enabled and since that didn't seem to work I disabled it. I set the CAS, RAS, and CAS to RAS to 3 - 3 - 3 respectivly as listed below on the manufacturers web page located at:
http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/configurator/partsinfo.asp?ktcpartno=KVR400X64C3AK2/2G
My Current Settings Are:
CAS# Latency - 3 Clocks
RAS# Precharge - 3 Clocks
RAS# to CAS# Delay - 3 Clocks
Precharge Delay - 8 Clocks
Burst Lenght - 4
DRAM Integrity Mode - Disabled
--MY RAM--
RAM: KVR400X64C3AK2/2Gl
Description: 2GB Kit 400MHz DDR PC3200 DIMM 3-3-3
Specifications: Standard 128M X 64 Non-ECC 400MHz 184-pin Unbuffered DIMM (SDRAM-DDR, 2.6V, CL3, Gold) (Datasheet)
--Motherboard Manual DRAM Info--
Configure DRAM Timing by SPD
Selects whether DRAM timing is controlled by the SPD (Serial Presence
Detect) EEPROM on the DRAM module. Setting to Enabled enables the
following fields automatically to be determined by BIOS based on the
configurations on the SPD. Selecting Disabled allows users to configure
these fields manually.
DRAM CAS# Latency
This controls the timing delay (in clock cycles) before SDRAM starts
a read command after receiving it. Settings: 2, 2.5 (clocks). 2 (clocks)
increases the system performance the most while 2.5 (clocks) provides
the most stable performance.
DRAM RAS# Precharge
This item controls the number of cycles for Row Address Strobe
(RAS) to be allowed to precharge. If insufficient time is allowed for
the RAS to accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh, refreshing
may be incomplete and DRAM may fail to retain data. This item applies
only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. Available
settings: 2 clocks, 3 clocks, 4 clocks.
DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay
When DRAM is refreshed, both rows and columns are addressed
separately. This setup item allows you to determine the timing of the
transition from RAS (row address strobe) to CAS (column address
strobe). The less the clock cycles, the faster the DRAM performance.
Setting options: 2 clocks, 3 clocks, 4 clocks.
DRAM Precharge Delay
This setting controls the precharge delay, which determines the timing
delay for DRAM precharge. Settings: 5 clocks, 6 clocks, 7 clocks, 8
clocks.
DRAM Burst Length
This setting allows you to set the size of Burst-Length for DRAM.
Bursting feature is a technique that DRAM itself predicts the address
of the next memory location to be accessed after the first address is
accessed. To use the feature, you need to define the burst length,
which is the actual length of burst plus the starting address and
allows internal address counter to properly generate the next memory
location. The bigger the size, the faster the DRAM performance.
Available settings: 4, 8.
DRAM Integrity Mode
Select ECC (Error-Checking & Correcting Code) or Disabled according
to the type of DRAM installed.
I am wondering if something else could be interfearing with the ram such as the AGP slot/card or if this is strictly a RAM issue. I have not seen this message before. Are my current settings what they should be for this RAM? Should I be asking Kingston this instead of coming here?

Thanks for the response.
My current DDR Power Voltage is set to 2.70.
Do you think 2.75 would be better? I'm wondering why you suggest 2.7 or 2.75, now that I look at the RAM specs it actually says 2.6 as posted above. I am not trying to be a jerk, I am just curious and want to know more!
My AGP Power Voltage is set to 1.50. I have a BFG Geforce 6800 GT OC 256 MB. I'm wondering if changing this a bit might help my graphics card as well? Perhaps 1.55 or 1.60V?

[865PE/G Neo2 Series] DRAM Timing is too tightly, Press any key to reset DRAM timing

hello,
i need some help.
I have been using this system for 1 year and 4 months now. A few days ago, when I booted up my computer, the message "DRAM timing is too tightly. Press any key or DEL to reset DRAM timing." appeared before it started detecting hard drive and CD-ROMS. I pressed a key and the computer continued as normal.
This morning, the problem got worse. I started my PC but my screen remained blank. The HDD light and CD-ROM light came on but the power light remained off. I turned off the PC by holding the power switch. When i turned it on again, it was the same situation but the power light started blinking. I turned off the PSU power from my wall socket and waitied about 1 minute. I turned it on again and the power light started blinking again but slower this time. I repeated the on/off steps by using the power button 2-3times. Finally, I tried pressing a few keys on my keyboard and the power light stopped blinking and remained green. I turned the PC on/off again and this time, it succeded in booting up.
And the DRAM messge appeared again.
I was like trying to start a car on a cold day... only after turning the key a few times did the engine start....
I've no idea what is happening here.
My specs are:
Intel P4 3.0C GHZ L2 512KB, FSB 800MHZ, 478 PIN

hi,
i smelled a burning smell from my power supply. i am replacing my power supply. i don't know if it was the cause of the dram timing thing.
i'll post here again after i replace my power supply. Thanks!!

When the comp boots up: press the 'delete' key to enter BIOS
Move the marker to 'Advanced Chipset Features' and press enter
Set 'Configure SDRAM Timing by SPD' setting to [Enabled] and press enter press enter
Press F10, and you woulg get the question 'Save changes and EXIT?', Answer 'YES* and press enter.
If this would'nt help, post back here.

Error Ram timing to Tight?

I have a msi neo - fis2r working with geil 3200 ddr... i put in 2-2-2-5-8burst and 2.65 voltage.. It booted windows but said ram timing to tight? please help

give it some more vdimm, try 2.8 that should solve your problem.
GeiL ram loves voltage, if that doesnt fix it, put your timings at 2-4-4-7 or something like that

PBook G4 not closing - clutch too tight?

I recently replaced the heatsink/fan assembly on a Powerbook G4 using step by step instructions from a reputable website. I had no problem with the deconstruction of the powerbook, but when putting things back together, I've run into a problem with the hinge. It's as though there is something impeding the closure of the powerbook, but I don't see anything. When you look at the clutch on the powerbook as it closes, it appears that the right side is trying to lift up out of the case. Any ideas as to what could be wrong with this? Thanks.

I found the solution - it was the fact that the hinge assembly was fastened too tightly. It wasn't the clutch, but the other piece holding the hinge to the frame. By loosening those four screws, I was able to get the PB to close again. I wanted to make sure I answered this to ensure that others might be able to find a solution to this if they ran into this problem. Thanks!

Lightning port too tight - is that normal?

I'm satisfied with my iPad Air, but I've noticed one thing that bothers me - a lot. When I insert the lightning connector, it seems way too tight. I have to jam it in much harder than with the iPad Mini.
This is a new unit. Should I demand a replacement? Am I doing something wrong?

Both pieces of advice make sense.
However, my iPad Mini and iPad 4 use the Lightning connector easily; the iPad Air almost needs a wrench. I'm still in the first days of ownership, and I can only imagine how many connectors I'll damage over time. I'll demand an exchange - or, if possible, a fix.

New DM1-4010 E-450 - USB slots on right side too tight

Just got a new DM1-4010 E-450. Loving it so far but the usb ports on the right side are super tight. I tried plugging in my wireless mouse receiver and it just wouldn't go in (didn't force it). The left side slot fits fine. When I look inside the socket, the wafers on the right are visibly a bit thicker than the other side. I didn't try any other usb peripherals so I don't know if they will be any better. My only thought was that maybe there is a thickness difference between powered and non powered sockets but I don't ever remember having this problem before. Any info would be helpful.
Thanks

I just received my DM1 and have the exact same problem - ports on the right are too tight, the one on the left is fine. Did you find any solution?

RMBP hinge became way too tight

My Retina macbook pro 13" (late 2013) was somehow damaged, I believe, because the hinge became too tight. It made cracking noise if I let the screen keep position for even a few seconds and then moved it. Out of stupidity, I sprayed some WD-40 into the slots between plastic clutch and aluminium so that it would reach the hinge. But this made the situation much worse! Now I can't open my Macbook with 1 hand, and the effort required is so big I'm afraid to bend the screen eventually.
What do I do?

Bad move. You may have permanently damaged it, and it is not likely to be covered by AppleCare. Should have just taken it into service without putting WD40 on it. Also if it has too much give, you could in theory end up fraying the cables going through it. I've heard of way too many people ending up with damaged inverter cables and solid lines crisscrossing the screen.

Yes you can shutdown as many times per day as you like
Yes you can use it plugged in even if the battery shows 100%, as per Apple guide on batteries here: http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
They recommend you use the battery and allow it to drain to below 40% of capacity atleast once a month to in their words 'keep the juices flowing' and for longterm storage where you won't be using the device, they recommend you unplug it and let it drain to about 50% before shutting it down and not using it for a long period of time ie: 6 months

Slideshow Timing - Changing Individual Slide Timing

in iPhoto '11 is there any way to change the timing of an individual slide? I'm preparing a slideshow of pictures for a Thanksgiving service where the pastor wants a text slide every couple minutes with some words he wants the congregation to speak. These slides would need more time than the other picture slides. I've already created the text slides in Photoshop, saved them as JPEGS and inserted them into the right places in the slideshow.

That option is only available for some themes and not others.
Classic
Shatter
Ken Burns
The others themes don't have this feature.
Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
iMovie, on every Mac sold, as is iDVD.
Others, in order of price:
PhotoPresenter $29

It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs.
However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Express is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

Wifi connection timed out, wifi connection timed out

I can't connect to internet using WiFi,,, my apple air book is 3 days old, I try to connect to my router, and my cell phone using wifi, and both connection tell me my connection has timed out,... How can I fix this problem?

try going to settings>wi-fi then click the blue arrow next to your network name. Select Renew Lease then Forget this Network then re-connect. That may help.

Superdrive is too tight!

Hey guys
I seem to be having some trouble with my superdrive and before I call apple or try to find an authorised service centre (anybody know of any good ones near glasgow?) I thought I would run it by you guys to see if it really is a problem.
Basically the superdrive seems to have some trouble inserting/ejecting discs some of the time. When I try to insert a disc the edge nearest the back of the macbook is very tight. So much so that the disc tends to stick and rotate in towards the front rather than going straight in centrally (if you see what I mean ). When I try to eject it usually doesnt eject as much as normal but its enough for me to pull it out. To fix this I usually partially insert a disc and press down lightly towards the back of the macbook where it is sticky. This frees up the mechanism and the discs will go in/come out normally (well what I believe is normal as this is my first mac). I have had my macbook since the begining of June and it has really only occured twice. Most other times the drive is fine.
So is it normal for the drive to be "tighter" at one side (maybe this is how it grabs the disc?) or should I have it looked at? Im slightly disappointed its my first mac and I want it to be perfect (i can live with the occasional mooing).
cheers

Are the disc's you're inserting dual layered? When I
insert a dual layer disc my drive won't even read the
disc. It just holds it for a couple of seconds and
then ejects it back out. You have to have a special
dual layer slot drive to read them (which does not
come with the MacBook, you have to go Pro for that
option). I say this because you said that it only
happens to you some of the time.

The only time a dual-layer disc should NOT work on a superdrive is if it a blank disc. Preburned ones however, will work fine. Same with the Combo drive. Sounds like both of you might want to have your drives looked at and adjusted as needed.
