GA MA790GPT-UD3H

Last response: in Motherboards

i have a gigabyte ma790gpt-ud3h rev. 1 and 2x2gb of memory modules from corsair CMD4GX3M2A1600C8.
the processor is a Phenon II x4 955 black edition 3.2ghz

im not sure if the problem is the onboard video card or the memory.

aways when i turn on the computer for the first time of the day, the system doesn´t boot.

a small green retangle and a character "Ñ" appears on screen. nothing happens after that!
i have to press the reset button to system boot up normaly.

i´m using only onboard sideport with dvi conection. i tryed all possible configurations in the bios.
i set corretly voltage and clock of memory. i tryed to change memory slots and nothing...

anyone knows about that error?

Hi newcomer and welcome to the Tom's hardware forum.

1- Do u have the last BIOS version?
2- If ur rig recognize the 4GB without problems in Windows the RAM isn't the problem. But if u want, test the RAM with memtest86+

Thank you :D  ! i aways come here to find answers to my problems. now i´m posting mine...

U can check in the BIOS the version that u have installed.

I think that u could RMA the mobo, since is very new u will get a reply answer to ur issue.

An about the problem, update the BIOS is the 1st step for try to solve a problem. Since ur mobo still have warranty u can contact with the Gigabyte tech support and maybe they can give to u another option to fix ur issue.
