jblindy Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I've been doing some searching and have come to the conclusion that it won't post due to different revision numbers. It's my wifes computer. P4c800-e deluxe, northwood 3.2 oc'ed to 3.6, twinx cmx512-3200c2pt xms3202v3.1. It's been running perfect for three years, running 24/7. My wife wanted me to install vista, so I did. She then started complaining because it was too slow (duh!!:roll:It's vista!) But she has to have vista because it looks better than xp!:laughing: So I thought that I would order another set of twinx. I just received them this afternoon, so I put them in. Nothing, the board won't even post with all four sticks in. It will post with either of the two sets, but not all four together. I thought that my oc could be flubbing things up so I relaxed timings and did everything I know of to get this damn thing to post with all four sticks. No luck. So exasperated, I logged on to the forums here and lo and behold I discover the problem might possibly be because of the different revisions. Old sticks are cmx512-3200C2PT xms 3202v3.1 New sticks are cmx512-3200LL xms 3205v1.2 I guess I'm stuck with selling these four sticks and buying a 2 gig twinx set? Or can I swap one set for another compatible set using an rma? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 It's never recommended to mix versions, let alone PART #s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted January 22, 2008 Corsair Employees Share Posted January 22, 2008 I would suggest trying to set the memory frequency manually at DDR400 and set the timings manually to Cas 2.5-3-3-7 at 2.75 Volts and see if its more stable.
