Only memory stick is seen what would be the problem?

[sasha055]

Hi,

I have a problem with my "new" MB
Whenever I stick memory in anything other than DIMM1 & 2 it will not post it gives me C1 error

I have Sapphire pure (PC-AM2RD790) board and 2 sticks og Crucial 6gb DDR2 800 ram (CT256664AA800.y16F)

If I put 1 stick in DIMM1 I get 2GB of ram and on boot I see "CPU0 memory, 2GB DDR2 800Mhz unganged 2T"
If I add 1 more stick to DIMM2 it boots but only memory in DIMM1 is seen.
If I put second stick in DIMM3 or 4 it won't post with C1 error.

I tested memory, eiher sticks work fine by themseves, but MB won't recognize them together.

I'm running defaults with phenom II X4 940 cpu.

Can anyone help please?

Try running memtest to see if you get error on each dimm slot otherwise the dimm slot might be faulty.
