What is this about? I just plugged my new IT7 and it gives me a "Ed" code?! It is not even written in the manual. The IT7 always makes 1 long beep, repetably. And nothing. :(
 
the place with the complete error codes went out of busness. one long beep is a memory problem though. try reseating the ram and clearing the cmos. i get the memory beep when i try to go too agressive on memory timings
 
I tried the 3 places in the IT7 with 1 memory stick. And after, i tried the same thing with another memory stick. It's Winbond ddr400; did i get a bad batch?
 
hmm its not likely you have two dead sticks of ram unless you were previously overvolting them too high. are you sure your clearing the cmos? i only say this because this board isnt the normal procedure. when you turn off the power aparently theres enough caps to power the board for a few seconds and you must wait
 
Yes i was resetting the board for 5 seconds each times.
I went to my computer shop and he lended(sp?) me a 256meg DDR333 and it worked when i tried it; first time in the 2nd slot. So the it7 is probably ok and 2 DDR400 dead on arrival? I will try to mix them... Right now i'm reformating my HD to reinstall winxp pro; it did not want to boot (i had a athlon 1.2GHz with that HD, i think it's normal that it won't boot with the same HD on a p4 2.53?)
 
HEHE....glad that I can help you now =)

Flash to the AV bios, my board did not have that bios and "Ed" code on my Xtreme PC3500+ sticks....

So flash with a working memory, change to the DDR400 and you are all set =)

Thank you very much, you made my day!

I just tried it with 1 gig of ddr400 at ddr356 (fsb:dram ratio of 3:4, not overclocked) and i got 12646 in 3dmark2001se. Now installing Audigy and Unreal Tournament!
