hi guys i just got a new nf7-s mobo. i'm having a problem with my ram. I have 2x512MB ocz pc3200 performance series.
i am only able to get 1 stick to work at a time. to get the single stick to work it has to be in slot 3, slot 2 and 1 don't work. i got it to boot once with both sticks in when i was doing the initial testing before i installed the os but after that once it never worked with both again.
when i try to boot i get
long beep, long space, long beep,long space and so on and so on.
if i understand the abit beep codes this tells me my ram isn't seated right. i've installed both sticks probably 20 times in the past 24 hours so i don't know how i could not be getting them seated right.
the ram i know works as i just pulled it from an abit kx7-333r where they worked flawlessly.
also i just updated the bios to the latest revision.
anyone got any ideas what is going on?
full system specs are as follows:
abit nf7-s v2.0
barton 2500 stock
1x512mb ocz pc3200
geforce 4 ti4200
wintv card
40gb hd
cd-rw
dvd-+rw
500watt psu
