    I've tried several times, but no luck.

    Sorry about the quality, but I made it a second time and focused in on the important stuff
    In Windows XP I am just showing you how to stop the pop up's by Right clicking on driver in Device Manager and choosing Disable.

    Also showing the last step in ERAM where you copy SuperPi folder to ERam "Z" drive and make shortcut for it.
    Remember you need to run 16k for fast time first like in the directions

    "Daily" rig or PC used for flashing .gho is z590 APEX
    Benching PC is z590 OC Formula

    Make images, use images, make your life easier ! Peace

  2. I just wanted to post this here for all the people getting bad SuperPi 32m times or having problems with the Macrium image from post # 1

    The reason why the HWBot Windows XP is slow is because it has extra things installed and way too many services enabled. Use CCleaner to uninstall all this junk and the services picture to see how it should be set up
    You should only have 12 processes running when you open task manager
    Formula Drive is buggy but it does work if you install A-Tuning first
    And use this picture to change services

    Even though the DRAM voltage is 1.9V
    DRAM voltage is 1.9V, but it is displayed as 1.8V, is that a specification?

     

    Flash MEI in bios or OS has gone to sh!t

    I'm following the guide to install this eram, but I'm not getting the screen as the guide says, but I managed to install it, but I can't open drive Z.
    After rebooting, it disappears.
    I'm at a loss.

    I think selecting "External (E) need edit BOOT.INI requires using batch file format_auto_eram.bat
    I went into detail at RocketLake 32m Noob thread

  4. Flash / Restore .GHO Ghost image
    This is ridiculously easy, here's what you need

    _A computer, preferably not your benching setup
    -USB2.0/3.0 to sata 2.5" adapter cable. 

    3162b99ff1df5a3da7e39f75f8eb4adba215f092_original.jpeg

    -Standalone norton ghost (only need ghost32.exe) 

    1 - Connect any ssd to the cable, plug cable into pc with .gho file and Ghost32.exe (not bench rig)
    2 - Open ghost         select local         
                                                            -> disk
                                                                          -> *from image*
    3 - follow onscreen instructions to select the
            1) .gho file your flashing / restoring
            2) SSD you are flashing it to (bench ssd)
                    probably will be called "Generic External" since it's connected with USB to sata adaptor cable
    4 - Once ghost finishes don't click restart, just click continue and you can close the program now
     - Safe eject the external ssd and connect it to bench hardware
     - you now have a fresh OS all prepped ready to bench.

  5. And how to use after the previous restart

    Drag "To Eram" to "Z drive" on desktop, 
    Open Shortcut you made before restart and run 16K once.
    Now click Alt C, down arrow until you get to 32m, hit "Enter" ONCE only
    You'll see screen that says "Hit Enter to run 32m" just leave it alone or move to side
     *WAZA* (Optional) Run a batch file such as "Waza.bat" or use OCX Pi Tweaker 1.0.8
    Open Task Manager (Ctrl Shift Esc)
    Details Tab, right click SuperPi, set Priority "Realtime"
    Right click Super Pi again, go to "Affinity" and have checkmark only in cpu core box "1"
    (Optional) Right-click - End Task -  "Explorer"

  6. To prep ERam for "fast start"

    Create Folder on Desktop called "To Eram". Put Super Pi program in it

    After E Ram installed, click on my Computer and you'll see "Z drive"

    Drag Z drive to desktop (copy)

    Now drag "to eram" folder (super pi) to Z drive on desktop
    open that Z drive, open "to eram" folder in z drive
    right click drag super pi to desktop to create shortcut

    Open the Super Pi in Z - to eram the one you just created a desktop shortcut for, not the shortcut itself
    grab bottom right corner of super pi window and pull up and left until you only see top bar with super pi logo and Super Pi / mod 1.5 XS
    Hit Alt C (for calculate), then hit Enter 3 times. this runs 16K
    do this like 15 times to get good score, close super pi and restart computer

    The combination of bclk and dram frequency and cache is a problem.
    Can't run DRAM at 3866

    I can only run cache at 4600MHz maximum on ambient cooling. Even using Formula Drive or physical buttons on mainboard the OS will freeze up when applying 4650 or more. Tried up to 1.625v

    You need to try different combinations of bclk. Like boot up at 105 bclk and up to 106.4 in OS with 47 multi for cpu
    That will give you 3830 ram option or 3970 for SR ram

    Here are the directions I promised for installing ERam

     

    step 1: Click "start" menu and open "Control Panel"
        Double click "Add Hardware"
        Hardware Wizard opens up
        click "Next"
    step1.thumb.jpg.2e5e3a9e161e8319dd190467829598b8.jpg

    step 2: Select "Yes, I already connected the hardware"
        click "Next"
    step2.thumb.jpg.75d7339bc8ff7e80f67c52a007fb3940.jpg

    step 3: Scroll to bottom of list
        select "Add new hardware device"
        click "Next"
    step3.thumb.jpg.eb1c1e54cbf765e96e6c4915e3fa51aa.jpg

    step 4: Select "Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced)"
        click "Next"
    step4.thumb.jpg.351ab50b53539f046daeed9ea0eff6c7.jpg

    step 5: Select "Show all devices"
        click "Next"
    step5.thumb.jpg.7aef04a3496db4fb554e04a3dd5217c1.jpg

    step 6: click on "Have Disk"
    step6.thumb.jpg.917261684b4c8956a770773db3476165.jpg


    step 7: Navigate to your extracted "ERam220 folder
        click "Open"
        select folder named "2000" and click "Open"
        click on "ERAM2000.inf" setup information file
        and then click "Next" 1 or 2 more times
    step7.thumb.jpg.21c724df30e223774b3b88b928b98c5d.jpg

    step 8: ERAM is now installed and you should see icon in Control Panel
        Double click on "ERAM" icon to open up it's properties
        Type in 100000 for "Disk size"
        select "External (E)
        click on "Modify" and click "OK"
    step8.thumb.jpg.5e8da536a4a1f0fd31be90fddae421fa.jpg

        You will be asked to Restart now, Say NO
        Go to Eram folder at c : or d: or e: \Eram220    
            NOT the Control Panel or Z drive in My Computer
        Double click on file named "format_auto_eram.bat
        Click OK
        Double click again on same file and then OK                
        Now it's time to Restart the PC

    With the same DRAM timing, start at frequency 3733 and run pi, then start at frequency 3866 and run pi.
    However, if I start from the beginning with 3866, π does not run at all.
    This situation has been confirmed recently.
    Is it my imagination?

    32m is challenging, but isn't that why we still love it.
    Take this picture below, this is TestMem5 Extreme1@anta777.cfg, HCI MemTest 7.0 and LinX 0.9.11 stable
    but I can't pass 32m with these settings. It needs higher DRam V, IO Mem V and SA V to pass

    why 9900KF is allowed, but xeons are only 6 cores or less?? Does it honestly you think?

    Well it's not like you can just run a Coffee Lake -R cpu with DDR3. There were only a handful of Z170 chipset 1151 boards made and they were 1 not very popular and 2 never meant for anything more than a budget solution to jump to Skylake. Some of the boards only officially supported up to 6700k cpu with 7700k being as far as these boards were designed to safely push.
    So just getting an 8700k or 9900k to post requires modification to the bios as well as patching and finding a way to flash the modified bios without bricking the board .     

    You also need physical modification the pcb itself, more specifically the Nuvoton chip / skt_occ.

    Once you have all that working then you need additional modifications to feed enough vcore to the 8c cpu and you can see more issues like cooking the power delivery planes to a crisp to deal with etc.
    So yeah oversight and loopholes have owned these competitions for years and if you're willing to track down such rare hardware and put all that work and testing involved just to run 1 or 2 benchmarks you deserve to be rewarded and 9900k cores and ipc is said reward. Good work Tagg
