Hi!
I have a Rampage Fromula motherboard (this:
http://), and I've decided to upgrade it. I have a pair of G-Skill F2-8500CL5D-4BPK 2GB modules, which worked fine, so I've decided to buy another pair. However, when I install them in the A2 and B2 slots, the system becomes unstable. The BIOS setting screen freezes after 2-5 minutes, and the LED shows "DET DRAM", ad the system goes blank. If I remove the new modules, the system (the POST screen) comes up again. Is there a specific setting in BIOS (or anything on the motherboard) that I should try out, or should I accept that this board can handle only 4GB RAM with 1066Mhz frequency?
Thanks in advance,
G
