I have a GA-EP45T-DS3R mobo and 2 gb (2x1) hi level ddr3 1333 mhz. No matter what i do i can't get them to work.(It starts and a few secs later it restarts) I don't know anything about timings or else but i'm open to suggestions. Please help..

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Please provide me a link to this ram, and tell me what CPU you are using and what speed you are running it at and I can help.
If you want, please also give me the settings you are using as of now that fail and I will advise back once you link your ram and give me your specs
This is Just a template I use to ask people their settings, pay no attention to the numbers in it, replace with yours

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Thanks for your response. Is there a way i can see the bios settings without restarting? ( A windows program maybe)
Btw i could provide you with a link but that darn company haven't updated even a single bit in they're site since 2006. I'm using Core2Duo E4500 2.2GHz no overclock..

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
A old site link is fine, I just want to check your model's warrantied voltages and such. You could just give me the model number and I may be able to find what I want to see that way, but go ahead and give me the link you have now as well.
No, you will have to go into the BIOS and manually write your settings down, then come back here and fill that out. No easy way to do it, sorry.

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
No man, I can help for sure.
Can you at least tell me what the Model # is on your sticker of your ram? If you cannot see it there, look in CPU-z SPD Tab. If still not luck, at least can you tell me what timings and voltages are on the sticker of the ram?
I can provide you some General help for now, but I cannot advise best without knowing the above things. You do know you will HAVE TO overclock to run your ram at 1066-1333 right?

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Thanks i'll try these but i'm afraid of damaging my kingston. Even though hil-levels may be above 1.5 (but we checked and they're 1.5) i have to adjust the settings on kingston cuz i can't load bios with hil-levels. Here's the info:
HLV-PC10600DK/2G
2GB DDR3 1333MHz Dual Kit 1/2
That's all. No info on voltage:s..

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Kingstons? What are you talking about now, you never mentioned mixed modules before. This will almost always be a headache.
As for your voltages on the Hi-Levels can you please post me a screenshot of CPU-z with the SPD Tab showing for one of them?
Comment

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
No. I'm not mixing modules. I bought hi-levels first but they didn't work and i needed a working computer . That is when kingston stepped into the scene. Here's a screen shot but it's kingston's for with hi-level's ,the computer doesn't boot up for me to take screenshots

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Is this information not enough? Cuz i couldn't find the other settings(even after ctrl+f1) I have to order another memory modul if there is no solution but that action must be the least of the possible measure's cuz i won't have any money left to buy some necessary things..

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Can you give me the model # off those Kingstons, and does it say 1.5V on the sticker or higher?
Both of your types of memory will work likely, with the correct settings. You may need to overclock as running 1333 memory at 800 normally would work but this could be a issue as well? The settings I gave on page one should work if they are not please post back what Exact settings you are setting that fail
Are you using the latest BIOS?

Re: Hi-Level Ram problem..
Yes i'm using the latest bios and i only have one kingston (1 gb 1 stick). Now i'm trying to contact with the manufacturer but i can't get into their website. The kingston is 1.5v and KVR1333D3N9/1G i think. isn't there a way to know what the settings of a 2 gb 1333mhz ddr3 memory kit should be)..
