striker Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 I am currently running the A8N with dual 512MB sticks of Corsair Pro 4000. I can only get it to recognize one ram chip. Is there any incompatibility issue? How can I resolve this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 Is it always the same stick, or does it follow a slot, or is it regardless of the slots, it randomly doesn't recognize one or the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeghoofd Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Try running memtest on each stick individually to see if one gives errors yes or no, does the mainboard read out the spd correctly, what are the timings recognised by the Bios ?

It never recognizes just one certain stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lights never light up on the one stick and the POST screen only shows 512MB of ram. I believe this one chip might be defective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
