Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 20, 2007 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 20, 2007 Check the manual for the correct slots but normally it would be slots A1 and B1 or A2 and B2 then go to BIOS setup and load setup defaults and set the memory Voltage to 1.9 Volts and then Disable legacy USB and exit the BIOS saving changes and run http://www.memtest.org on the system.
