Avalanche Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I got a twin pack of cm2x1024-6400 today to up my ram to 4 gb I have 2x1024 Value select (VS2GBKIT667D2) that is working fine in both a1/a2 and in b1\b2 slots so I know I don't have a bad slot on my board. I stalled the new ram and got a memory code error. so I removed them and pc started fine. I then installed one peice of new ram and it started fine and shut down then installed the last peice and got a code error again. I am running Xp and yes I know the last gig of ram is not going to be picked up by Xp but I am getting my system ready for vista and would like to have 4 gigs of ram. Do I have a bad stick of ram or am I doing something wrong? system config: Amd 5200+ m2n4-sli 2x1024 mb VS2GBKIT667D2 7900gs oc 450w PSU windows Xp Home System is not overclocked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekT Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 When you populate all four DRAM banks you need to drop the bandwidth of the DRAM. Set the DRAM to 533Mhz and you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
