dannywayy77 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I just installed 2x4gb 1.5v 13333 mhz on my Intel DP45SG. It will not take them though. I know my max ram is 8gb and I've updated my bios so no problem there. And otherwise it's the exact same ram I have in it besides the fact it's 1.7 v and they're 2x1gb instead of the new ram which is 1.5 2x4gb. I've tried every configuration of putting them in, New mixed with old and just new with no luck. I'm all out of ideas. Any Help?

peanutz94 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Sorry the new memory is going to be incompatible with your system due to chipset limitations of your older board and new memory technology. Not to mention your system is incompatible with 4 gig modules all together. You would need 4x2gigs , not 2x4gig modules to make up your 8gig max. http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cmx8gx3m4a1333c9 These SHOULD work with that system. I'm going to say should because of the age of the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayy77 Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 No thank you very much. That was the conclusion I came to as well. And thanks for posting that package. I hadn't even seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayy77 Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 Well I bought the 4x2gb set up and no dice. My computer still gives me 3 beeps (no memory) and no display. help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conners Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Might try a CMOS reset... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayy77 Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 Yeah I did that by removing the bios battery and I tried multiple times. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conners Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Ugh try with 2 sticks instead of 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayy77 Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 I've tried 1 stick, 2 stick, and 4 stick setups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conners Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I seen this in your manual maybe it helps maybe it doesn't. Remove the video card in the Primary PCI Express x16 before installing or upgrading memory to avoid interference with the memory retention mechanism. • To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non- SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency.

dannywayy77 Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 No. And now I've lost my display. :l but thanks for trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayy77 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Share Posted March 22, 2014 OK. Fixed the display. Back on my 2x1gb 1.7v's. Would really love to get my 4x2gbs working. Help help help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conners Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 So if you just put one stick in will it boot into windows, or what exactly does it do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannywayy77 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Share Posted March 22, 2014 Both old sticks. Work fine. 1 new stick - 3 beeps meaning the mobo isn't detecting any memory. And I just get black screen. I've looked around and I've read it might just be a problem with my mobo and how old it is. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conners Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Just out of courisity are the double sided ram chips? I found this it may or may not help you. In SDRAM single sided (high density) can be used only in modern PCs. Old PCs don't always read the memory right because they calculate how much RAM to access based on the number of chips on the stick, not taking into account that each chip might contain twice the storage. So for old PCs you should use double-sided (low density) RAM to ensure that it will work correctly in your system. Otherwise, the PC might end up convinced that your memory has only half the storage capacity that it is actually capable of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
