kjetillunde Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I would try these settings: Configure System Frequency/Voltage AI Overclocking = ManualCPU Frequency = 266DRAM Frequency = 800MHzPerformance Mode = AutoPCI Express Frequency = 100PCI Clock Synchronization Mode = 33.33 Memory Voltage = 1.8vCPU Core Voltage = AutoFSB Termination Voltage = AutoMCH Chipset Voltage = AutoICH Chipset Voltage = Auto Advanced Chipset Settings Configure DRAM by SPD = DisabledDRAM CAS# Latency = 5DRAM RAS# Prechardge = 5DRAM RAs# to CAS# Delay = 5DRAM RAS# Activate to Precharge: 18DRAM Write recovery Time = 6 I`ve tried these settings with my Asus P5w DH Deluxe and Twin2X4096-6400C5 and I use 32bit OS. But Windows System Properties only shows 2.0 Gigs of RAM?? CPUZ can see all my ram thou... I use bios ver.2801 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 16, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 16, 2009 What version of Windows and how much memory in on your Video Card and how many Video cards are installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjetillunde Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 What version of Windows and how much memory in on your Video Card and how many Video cards are installed? I use XP Professional Versjon 2002 with SP2. How can I check how much memory in on my Video Card? I just have one Video Card (ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 16, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 16, 2009 Windows XP is a 32 Bit O.S. and by default it will not let any application have access to more then 2.0 Gig of memory and why its only showing 2.0 Gig in that application. How much memory is shown in CPU-Z? If its all showing it is just a Windows Limitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPU-Z is showing all 4 gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 16, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 16, 2009 No Applications will be limited to 2.0 Gig unless they are made to see more memory like Photo Shop and you use some of the hacks to the registry.

I don`t understand what you mean. Can you explain more? (I`m so bad in english, sorry) (I will use big sample liberaries in my music program Cubase 5, would be nice to use more than 2.0 gigs) I`ve heard people using 2,8gigs with 32bit OS.

kjetillunde Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Is it possible to see more than 2gigs with 32bit XP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 See, YES. Use more than 2 GB per application, No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Windows System Properties only shows 2.0 Gigs of RAM?? CPUZ can see all my ram thou... I use bios ver.2801 When you boot the system and see the BIOS screen, how much memory is shown at that point? Also, does your BIOS have a function called Memory Hole Remapping or something similar?

DerekT Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 P5W DH does not have a setting called memory remapping. Instead it has: 32Bit OS Disable64Bit Os Enable Set to 32Bit OS Enable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead it has: 32Bit OS Disable64Bit Os Enable Set to 32Bit OS Enable Actually my P5W DH has a setting called memory remapping, and I`ve tried with it disabled first (not more than 2.0 gigs in system properties) and than enabled (also not more than 2.0 gigs in system properties) When I boot the system and see the BIOS screen, it shows 4096MB... What can I do for XP to see more than 2.0 gigs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekT Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Very likely Intel has changed the setting names via BIOS revisions. That is an old board and my documentation is from board release. If you see all 4GB in BIOS but not in Windows XP, then this is related to the motherboard BIOS and the 32Bit OS. I advise you to move to a 64bit OS.

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 17, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 17, 2009 Normally the memory count will be on the first post screen where it say ASUS MODEL ACPI Bios versiom XXXX Memory Count! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzol Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Look up one of my previous threads: 394536 One thing could be that your using 32 bit which only utilizes 2-3 gigs but you can try this: 1) Open up the start menu 2) Type in : msconfig 3) Click on msconfig 4) Click continue in the UAC if applicable 5) Click the boot tab 6) Click " Advanced Options" 7) Under "Maximum Memory" either set the amount of MB, or untick it 8) Click Ok, and Ok again 9) Restart the computer, and check to see if Vista recognizes it *10) if this fails, check to see if you inserted your ram correctly Your Welcome if this works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
