More Information

Hi.

I have a DFI Lanparty UT nf4 SLI-DR with an AMD Athlon 4400+ dual-core.

Memory:

2x OCZ PC-3200 400Mhz (slot 1 & 3) OCZ4001024ELDCPER2-K 2-3-2-5
2x OCZ PC-3200 400Mhz (slot 2 & 4) OCZ4002048ELDPE-K 2.5-3-2-5

Lasted bios (2006-06-04)
The bios only detect 2gb. Same thing for Windows
But CPU-Z in windows show all the 4 dimms.

Why is the bios not detected 3gb ?

I know the maximum ram is 4gb so 3gb should be correct ? I don't care
for the moment about the speed or if it dual channel or not, I only
want to see 3gb and I can't even do that.

P.S. I have a document from Intel demontrating that for DDR memory, you
can but 2 dimm of one sort and 2 other dimm and still be dual channel.
So I know it is possible.
