new mobo, won't POST with two sticks of RAM
I've just put together a system using an Asrock 775TWINS-HDTV, a
Celeron D 226 and two sticks of identical Twinmos PC2100 DDR CL2.5. The problem is, it will only POST with a single stick of the RAM, if I put both in it doesn't even put any text on the screen. I can put either stick in either slot and it will boot fine, but not both. Any ideas? TIA J |

"Memory - 2 x DDR DIMM slots - Supports DDR400/333/266 - Max. capacity: 2GB - 2 x DDRII DIMM slots - Supports DDRII667/533 - Max. capacity: 2GB" http://www.asrock.com/product/product_775Twins-HDTV.htm Have you tried using the other slots? I would suggest that J tried using the DDR slots for his DDR modules only;-) May be the ATI chipset accepts two rows only, i.e. one double-sided DIMM _or_ two single-sided DIMMs... (depending on the number and organization of memory chips on the particular DIMMs). (You may see the organziation at Lavalys' Everest Motherboard SPD module size - "2 ranks" being double-sided, "1 rank" denoting single-sided.) May be the ATI chipset doesn't like TwinMOS... (I have two TwinMOS PC3200 512MB with Winbond CH5 chips - double-sided - and they run on motherboards without VGA chip with i865 chipsets, but do not on a Shuttle board with an i865 chipset with a VGA chip.) BTW - What is the capacity of J's two sticks? Roy wrote in message oups.com...
