I thought I'd get 1 long beep repeating with no ram installed (this has been true for almost every board I've ever owned). I tried no name 512mb (elpida pc5300), infineon 512 (infineon pc6400), wintec 512 (infineon pc6400), patriot 1gb (micron pc6400), ballistics 1gb (micron pc6400) - single stick in each slot. Tried pc p&c 850 and an evostream 720. Using a 3.0ghz prescott (working pull). All this was done with minimal build (mobo, cpu, ram, and psu) inside and outside the case. Granted, the microns may need more voltage, but I thought I'd try anyway.
Is it normal for these boards to double boot like the p35's?
