Hey all, I've got a weird problem when trying to add 2x new DDR 1GB G.Skill pc-3200 sticks. I had 2x 512mb sticks in my comp for a while now, working fine, but when I replaced them with the 2 new 1gb ea. sticks, my comp just starts and then restarts before hitting the windows phase over and over again. It still says 512mb on the start up screen and I just can't seem to get them to work together (ive tried all possible configs). The Gigabyte mobo manual says that slots 1+2 must be filled or 3+4, with no other different configurations for 2 sticks (my boards first 2 slots are purple, last 2 are orange).
I WANT to be able to use all 4, but the 2x 1gb sticks won't even work together. I've tried them both solo, and they work so it's not bad chips, nor bad slots. I don't know much about this, but I have a feeling this may be a bios troubleshooting problem? Either way, any input would be greatly appreciated. These are my specs - Thanks!
My Mobo - GA-939 k8nusli
Old RAM - (512mb ea.) 2x Kbyte DDR pc-400s
NEW RAM - (1gb ea.) 2x Dual Channel G.Skill DDR pc-3200 *edit* (CL2.5-3-3-6 2.6V-2.7V)
