Need HELP with My RAMS!!

I just bought 2x512 Corsair RAM that can DC. While running them on their own only, I can boot up. I placed them in Slot 1 & 2 and when I go bios, they can detect I run 1gb+ of RAM. But when I add in my current 512 Corsair Ram into slot 3, when I switch on Comp, no signal on my moniter. The moniter have power, but blank screen through out.

Whats going on? How to solve?

Ok, take a look at this. I got this from my mobo manual at abit website



does this means I cannot use 3 sticks of ram? only can 1/2/4 sticks together is it?


I tried running my original 512 with 1 stick of the new 512, possible. the original 512 on its own, also possible. But NOT all 3 sticks.


In which slots should I put them so that they can work?

I'm using an Abit AV8 with an A64 (S939) chip

Yes, that is what it means. It won't run with 3 sticks no matter what slots you use. Sorry.

ok thanks! at least this spared me all the experimentations.
