I am trying to upgrade a computer with a P5G41T-M LE board to 8GB of ram.
ASUS has the memory specs as 2 x DIMM, Max. 8 GB, DDR3 1333(O.C.)/1066/800 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory Dual Channel memory architecture.
My first attempt I purchased 2 sticks of 4GB Kingston 1066 but once installed the computer would not post. I returned those and since 1066s is no longer available locally I was sold some 1333 Corsair. Same results.
I have tried resetting CMOS by using the on-board jumper. All my boot settings changed to default and had to be changed back but computer would still not boot.
I tried playing with the various overclocking settings but I know nothing about those and none of the settings I tried helped.
I've tried booting with just one 4GB stick and again it will not post. If I switch back to my original two sticks of Corsair 2x2GB computer works fine.
I've upgraded the BIOS to the newest version.
I still have the 1333s and would prefer to upgrade to 8GB but I can return them. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get them to work or failing that how I can upgrade this motherboard to 8GB?
