i just received 1 gig dual memmory of kingstone hyperx n currently i used 512 mb dual memmory kingstone hyperx. i tried to put all my memmory to my mother board n it seem i have a problem, when i turn my comp on everything is on but my screen i not, first i though it was PSU problem but i changed my PSu to 480 watt but still have problem

my question is can i use my 512 mb (2X256) with 1 gig(2X512) memmory or i only can use either 512 or 1 gig.

p4p800
p4 2.8 gig ht

Try this: Slot 1 - 512mb stick
Slot 2 - 256mb stick
Slot 3 - 512mb stick
Slot 4 - 256mb stick

Up your Vdimm to 2.7v and see what happens.

I'd try the 512's by themselves in slots 1 and 3, if it boots OK then raise the vDimm to 2.7v like craig said, turn it off, and add the other two DIMMs to slots 2 and 4.

thx for the replies guys, but yap i done what u guys said but still have boot problem.

my old ram is the 512mb, when i used them i use them at 2.7v n now i try the same thing with the 1 gig one i even cant raise the volt to 2.7v

now i use my 1 gig only with auto setting in my bios, bcause if i change something like the V i will have boot problem

boot problem is like this if i put all my rams when i turn the comp on it on but my monitor doesnt show ne thing, n i just reformat my comp bfore i put my rams.

so ne ideas?

At this level if you dont have any output on your screan its not OS dependent, make sure your using the latest bios and you can try reseting your Cmos.

Altough not likely your memory might not like higher Vdimm...
