Hi everyone. I built a new computer about 3 weeks ago, here are the specs:
e8400
8800gt
Asus p5k/epu
antec neopower 430
OCZ Platinum 6400
2 hard drives
So I initially put 2 gigs of stated ram in the machine and it works like a charm. Last week I bought an additional two gigs, put them in, and nada. The fans come on, the power light on the tower comes on, but thats it. No video, the monitor doesn't even come out of sleep mode. Also, I suppose I should note, the fans are at top speed, like the BIOS hasn't enacted my fan speed settings.
If I take one stick out (tried both dimms), it works just fine. 3 gigs = fine, 4 gigs = oh noes.
Also, I have my system oc'ed. My ram timings are set to factory recommendations (4-5-4-15) and the volts are set to 2.1
I've also tried loading the default BIOS, and that still didn't work.
I've tried getting help from the Asus forums, but to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas?
