Earlier in the week I changed my Cpu multiplier to get my 955 BE from 3.2 to 3.7 and had no problems but I noticed my memory speed was at 1333 and not what it was rated to (1600). So today I went into Bios and changed it to 1600 and made sure timings were correct and voltage, saved changes and it does nothing now. No image on display, no audio beeps, it powers on and I have fans but that's it. I tried to boot on one stick of memory, same result. Here's my original thread:

You are going to have to reset your BIOS settings. Google your motherboard model and in the documentation it should tell you how to do this. You generally connect two pins on the board while the power is out to reset it. You can do this but it is easier for most to just remove the battery.

This is true. But also takes 15 minutes of game time(;

Thanks guys, didn't have a jumper but hit both pins with a paper clip to short them and that worked good. I reset BIOS and put everything back to default, that worked. I did some experimenting and it lets me change the freq from 1333 to 1600 without a problem, I was able to recreate my issue when I changed the timing to 7-8-7-24-2 (which is what my memory says??) It has it defaulted to 9-9-9-24 -- So I have no idea what's up with that. Just glad to get her going again! Thanks again

Anyone have any ideas why I can't set the correct timing??You got some drp sticks if they wont run at the rated timing.
sad but it happens... could try return them.
What does drp stand for? Bought them 4 years ago when I built so they probably won't take them back lol
Most major brand RAM sold these days has a lifetime warranty.
What is the make and model of your RAM?
