So, I've been testing my GeiL 3000 AMD DDR4 memory - XMP profile.
Run Memtest64, everything freezes, system unresponsive. I try to reboot, Windows cannot boot.
I try repair disk, cannot fix boot problems. Have to re-install Windows. Sigh.
Then I do the same test on freshly installed system. Run Memtest64, it crashes PC, cannot boot, has to re-install Windows.
Third time I turn off XMP profile, Memtest64 runs with no issues, no errors.
I kind of understand how overclocked memory may cause PC to crash, but I don't understand why it (or Memtest64?) crashes it to the point that it cannot boot????
