Model of the motherboard: P5Q3 Deluxe
Model of the memory: F3-10666CL9D-4GBNQ
Model of the CPU: Q9550
Greetings!
After searching through the forums I was unable to locate someone with the same issue as me, so here goes:
I have had this setup working well for over 12 months now with 2 x 2Gb's in DIMM slots A1 & A2, however decided that I would get another 2 x 2Gb (same model) to fill the remaining two slots.
Unfortunately no joy when all 4 x 2Gb are installed.
I eliminated the new RAM as a potential cause when I removed the existing two known good chips and replaced them with the new ones, running the PC at it's previous configuration (2 x 2Gb) and it ran without a problem.
When all 4 slots are populated, when the device is powered on all the devices power up, however the initial 'beep' of the board is not heard and the screen stays black.
I have made no changes to the RAM settings in BIOS, and the latest firmware is installed.
Are there specific settings I need to make in the BIOS to ensure all of the RAM is used?
Hoping you can help
Regards,
Azzir
