I just installed a new stick of Corsair 512Mb XMS-PC3200LLPT into my system. BD7II-Raid Motherboard
Problem is:
The stick only shows as being 256Mb single sided in both the BIOS and every program that I have. (CPUz, Sandra 2001se, Sandra 2003, Memtest86, etc.)
Looking a Sandra motherboard information it shows only one bank instead of both banks.
1.) Tested slot 1 on mobo and shows Bank0
2.) Tested slot 2 on mobo and shows Bank2
Could it be that a memory controller chip or something on the motherboard is not reading the second bank, since both Bank1 & 3 are not showing up?
I did test the chip in another board ECS K7S5A and it shows correctly as 512Mb stick.
