Greetings from perhaps the newest "member" of your elite caucus - and there is definitely a reason for my being here.
First - I am the ultimate of knows nothing where I presently find myself, but here goes. I just
completed my first build which included the components listed in "Title". Presently I'm in the process of testing my RAM sticks (4x4) for their worthiness. Posted & booted perfectly - recognized all components. Purchased the ram, 2x(2x4) because I wanted the CL7, not
knowing 16 GB packs do not usually (read that never) come mit 7 latency. So be it. Presently,
whatever amount I use, four sticks, two sticks, or one stick - boots (usually from forced shut down) fine, runs fine for 20 - 30 minutes - then mouse and keyboard use deteriorates to point where mouse cursor disappears and keyboard is useless/inoperable (number/scroll/Caps lock
lights will not) Then windows exp hangs closing, windows 7 Pro closing screen hangs (forever),
mandating "forced/power switch" shutdown.
Have tried to configure RAM, four, two, and single sticks in BIOS in default, custom, and XMP profile 1, whatever that might be - no difference. Tried XMP prof 2, would not
boot. Can bumble around in BIOS - barely, can set some settings that I recognize, save and exit. Have Evga E-Leet & CPU-Z installed
but don't know what to change or adjust.
Have to finish this quickly, before my mouse times out. Can anyone possibly offer a, I'm
afraid, rather detailed "what's wrong, what to do, and how to do it"?? Would be much appreciated. Danke sehr.
