Hello, I have an asrock z68 extreme 3 gen 3 motherboard. I changed the cooler from an deep cooler gammax 400 to an Hyper 212 evo. When I went to boot the pc after the install, I got an dr.debug code 55 on boot up. Didn't even make it to the bios screen. (memory not installed.)
The computer shut off, I rebooted it and cleared the cmos and got the same error.. Only few things I remember doing was, taking out one of the dimms when installing the new cooler to avoid bumping it and damaging a slot. I removed one ram stick from the first slot(a1), and left the rest in the other slots. I also left the cpu in the pc when installing the cooler, so I don't think I bent a pin.
---------
I was mixing ram. The ram I was using Mushkin DDR3 and g.skill ram. ..BUT.. I didn't have any issues running my pc this way. I ran gta5 once, picked up around 10fps it used 11gigs of ram without the game or pc crashing. I ran the pc this way for months, and it was perfectly fine. I recently tried all of the ram sticks on another machine, all of them working perfectly fine. As of right now, dual channel mode does not work. I have to run my memory in a1 and a2 in order to have 8gigs of ram. Both were 8gb kits of ram. And were high quality too. I didn't have the money to buy identical sets of ram at the time.
I recently changed my cpu to an i7 2600 because I got it for free, and that didn't fix the problem either.
If anyone knows why this is happening, it would be great to know. Thank you!
