Hi, I seem to be having a problem with my mobo detecting ram after a flash update. After the update finished my pc won't post/boot, just beeps. I have tried :-
1) Clear CMOS
2)Tried different slots
Also the both ram works perfectly fine.

P.s: the reason why I tried to update is because my mobo won't boot with 2 ram sticks
P.s.s: my mobo is m5a97 le re 2.0 and ram is komputerbay 1333-ddr3 4x2 gb and cpu is amd 6300
 
RMA your board with Asus, they will degrade your bios to previous version for free if you didn't break it during update(in that case they might charge a few $'s).
And I also recommend do not update bios if your system runs fine and detects everything.
 
Then the RAM module is not recognized. Is it properly inserted?
If yes, and you think that the issue is BIOS related, you can order from ebay a BIOS chip flashed with the desired version and replace the board's one (it's on socket).
Try also clearing the CMOS, if you haven't already.

Hi, the Ram my friend gave me worked.
Fortunately my ram also started working since trying my friends ram. But the bios update still didn't fix my previous problem.
As it only works with one ram stick at a time.
