DFI Lanparty JR P45 T2RS
E7200
2x1GB Corsair XMS2 DDR2-800 4-4-4-12 2.1v also tried 2x1GB Kingston DDR2-800 Cas5 Value 1.8v
WinXP 32-bit
320GB Hitachi 7200
OCZ StealthXStream 400W PSU also tried a TT 420W PSU
Here's when the problem started:
UPGRADED from a Radeon HD4350 512 to a 9600GSO 384mb, and the problems start. I'm using the LOWER PCIe slot bc the main one has a broken latch.
I pulled out the HD4350 and replaced it with a 9600, and the machine wouldn't POST... now the problem seems to be related to the RAM+Mobo combo, but I've yet to test the old video card again...
I can run a single stick. I can't boot dual-channel, or sometimes BARELY... I can sometimes boot single-channel with 2 sticks, but it's NEVER stable, or it'll freeze at POST screen.
The machine was able to do OCCT Auto 1 hour with 1 stick.
I updated to the latest BIOS... I tried numerous different ram voltages, and I also tried raising NB chipset from 1.8 to 2.2v. I also tested with a DMM and voltages seem fine, 5.09 / 12.31 / 3.39... something like that, but all within spec.
I've tried a bunch of other things, but what advice do you guys have?
