A7V266-E and Ram
I want to thank everyone for the info, I learned some stuff. Here is
the story, I'll try and explain this in steps.
1. I removed my two sticks of DDR 2100 266 256m from bank 1 and bank 2
bank 3 is empty.
2. I replaced the DDR 266 with Crucial 256m,DDR, 333, CL2.5 this RAM
is a SIMM CT3264Z335.8T3
3. Ok now I plugged two sticks of this Crucial in and plugged the CPU
in and nothing, monitor was black, I got a beep code of a steady
short beep indicating Ram Problem.
4. So now I unplugged the Crucial and put the original RAM back into
the same two slots (bank 1 and Bank 2) plugged power back in
nothing monitor stays black (no video). now what
5. I shut down machine and put one stick of original Ram DDR 2100
266, 256m, into Bank 3, Plug machine back in and video comes up
and all is well, Except I only have one stick at 256M.
6. I think that Bank 1 and 2 are toast, original Ram works good in
bank 3. but I dont have any more slots. Weirdest thing ever
happened to me. the ram almost feel loose in the Bank 1 and 2
almost like the connection lost all the spring that keep the pins
snug against each other for contact?
7. So for now I guess untill I get another motherboard Iam stuck with
one slot. Thanks everyone for the info.
God Bless and Easy Does It
