Question Ram problem on 8rda+
Hello

I have a realy strange problem on my new 8rda+

First my conf..

EP-8rda+ BIOS 3129
POW G-force 4 ti4200 128 mb ddr ram
2 X 256 MB PC2100 kingston ram

The problem is that I only can use 1 of my 2 rams

If I boot with 1 ram in dimm 1 - no problem
If I boot with 1 ram in dimm 1 and 1 ram in dimm 3 or 2 then the system dosent send any signal to my monitor - and the screen dosent turn on. Error code on digit 1C

The only way I can make things work all rigt is when i boot with 1 ram in dimm 1 - but then i only use half of my ram?

any 1?

With one stick of memory in MB, boot up, enter bios, and increase memory voltage, save and exit bios, reboot and make sure it goes into windows, SHutdown, install second piece of memory, startup and see if this helps!
