oneloveamaru Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I'm having a problem getting my new system to boot up. I havnt ever gotten a video signal yet. Here's what's going on. A8V Deluxe (Bios 1008, newest to date), AMD 64 3500+ 90nanometer chip, and twinx 1gb set of ddr400. Each module sais CMX512-3200C2PT and XMS3202v3.1 400MHz CL2. When I have both sticks in there for dual channel, nothing will happen, nada, zip. Fans turn on, but nothing. When I have just one stick in there, I can get a post report of "CPU FAILED DUE TO OVERCLOCKING!" I have cleared the CMOS, took out the battery for a few minutes, everything I could to clear it. Called ASUS, they told me 80% Of the time it has to do with the memory modules not being supported. I had these modules running fine with my a7n8x deluxe. Anybody know what's up? Any ideas? The motherbaord is brand new, and so is the CPU. Should i be looking at the RAM as the cause, or something else... RAM GUY HELP ME OUT HERE!! Thanks so much.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 12, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 12, 2004 I would get your CPU replaced if both module run one up but you get no post when both are installed. And or make sure that you do indeed have the latest bios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneloveamaru Posted November 12, 2004 Author Share Posted November 12, 2004 I had ASUS send me a new Bios that was flashed from their Bios Support Center. I will try and have my CPU checked out, but I just need to find somewhere to take it to. I'll let you know how I make out, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 12, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 12, 2004 If you are still have the same problem after the new bios then I would get the CPU replaced, as it would most likely be the memory controller and that is in the CPU.
