zombie1000, you have a tough case to diagnose! If you post your system specs maybe someone here can tell you if one of your parts has known quality control issues.

i am running:

Q-tec 500w big fan psu
P4e 2.8ghz (stock hsf)
maxtor 80gb SATA
Gigabyte GA-8VT880 ultra (bios revision F4) and im running the onboard sound and lan, usb's etc.
512mb Geil Value PC32000 dual channel kit
aopen cd rewriter
bog standard sony floppy disk
geforce 4 mx4000(crappy i know but i smell an upgrade soon)
and xp pro sp2

I had a thought that maybe its my install of xp?? It was a badly scratched disc and some files failed to kepp but i am planning of reformatting soon.

I forgot; I would like to try an older revision of prime 95 if i can get me hands on one or i will try linux version after raid, reformat and partion. (R.R.P lol)

You can find the older versions here: [url]ftp://mersenne.org/gimps[/url]

I just browsed through this thread, but one thing I didn't see mentioned is that running in safe mode sometimes helps. Safe mode uses different versions of some drivers, and sometimes drivers interfere with Prime95 (not restoring the previous state after an interrupt).

I will try safe mode tommorrow, also it seems to be only the M19922945 that it fails, dont know wether this is any use.

safe mode = same problem :sad:

after looking at the post below this one (unstable?) he seems to have the same error as me but i ahve already run memtest 86+ and it passes

Any ideas anyone?

Bad motherboard.

failure error after 1 minute.
 

I had the same problem about failure less than .4 etc.
I checked in the bios and found that my ram memory was not set on auto which is the best setting. It was set on RPB as I can remember. Once I set the bios to auto on the ram it ran perfect and I stopped after 4 hours. Now why did this happen? When I built my computer I got an athlon 2600 and I planned later to upgrade to a 3200. So I bought memory at 3200 planning for the upgrade later on. However as I remember my 2600 chipset doesn't use 3200 but best suited to 2700. So I feel the problem was due to overclocking the chipset. I set up the chipset with no overclocking but didn't realize.
Whether you agree or not, It solved this problem which has been giving me ulcers. I tried everything possible and this did make it work.
Hope I helped you out. I'm new to this forum which I linked up from prime 95.
Good luck,
dedicated :razz:

As a general rule , the memory shouldn't run faster than the FSB.
That fixed my problem. MS has a download to torture test memory. Good test to run.

All my timings and speed etc for memory is auto.
