KT880 Delta & RAM slots

[Guest]

I put a 512MB stick of Crucial DDR3200 in slot 1 on my KT880 and it
runs fine. When I put a second identical stick in slot 2, I have a
kinds of problems. The major one being that my browsers crash, no
matter which one I use, IE, Firefox or Opera. Also my monitor won't go
into power save mode. I now have the second stick of RAM in slot
running dual channel and I have no problems.

Question, is there a known problem with populating slot 2 with RAM?

Thanks
Smitty

I`ve got slot 2 populated with no problems, slot 3 does have problems
unless the ram is identical though.
