ASUS A7A266 memory problems?

[drbobm4]

My ASUS A7A266 board seems to have a problem recognizing all the memory in the two DDR slots. with 2 512 Meg DDR modules, it will sometimes find 1 gig of memory, but more often than not it finds 768 megs. It does this with several different modules. Does this seem like the motherboard?

oddds are your ram modules are incompatible, or that one or both are bad. try each one individually and reply with what amount your system recognized.

Hi there I have similar problem, did you get a working solution?
I using 2 modules each 256MB one of them is recognized as 64 MB only.
Vendor sais module is 256MB and works good, but I didn't see it works good.

But system neeads at least 20 minutes to recover from this setting and
come up up again (I think cool down time)
So there is no solution up to now, for me.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

perhaps your board is causing said trouble.
