This was my first time building a computer so I don't know if it's something I've done wrong or if it's a problem with the motherboard. But I can't get it to boot to the operating system (WinXp Pro/SP2) using two (2x1gig) sticks of memory, it gives me a BSOD and reboots and then just stops, I have to turn it off. If I use one sick and it works fine.
I started off using Rosewill memory when this first happen and was told it was my memory so I bought some OCZ and it's doing the same thing. I also had a friend let me try there Kingston and it did the same thing. The manual says to use the two blue slots A1 and B1, I can use B1 and A2 and it will work fine and the memory shows up in Windows as 2048mb but not duel channel or whatever it's called.
I'm running an AMD X2 3800 cpu ( not OC) and have two Sata hard drives (Samsung), Nec DVD/CDRW and a NEC DVD player, and Nec Zip drive. I've tried taking everything out except one hard drive and the Video card (EVGA 7800gtx) and it still won't work. My temps are 32C for the MB and 33C for the CPU, and I have a PC/P&C 510 PS. And I'm using the 1005 Ausu Bios.
So, can someone please help me figure out what's wrong here? I don't have a clue myself and I could really use some help on this? Thanks!
