Hey Everyone!
Great resource here - thanks to those that contribute.
I am hoping I can get a little help here - I cannot get my system to boot with the full 8gb of memory installed. Specifications as follows:
GA-P35-DS4 (rev. 2.0)
Intel E8400 @ 3.0 GHz
4x 2gb Corsair Dominator PC2-8500C5 Memory
EVGA 8800GTS 640MB Video Card
I had 8gb running for awhile - but then it BSOD and shut off. I booted it back up and it got stuck in a short "fan spin up, shut off, reboot" sequence that would go until I shut off power.
To get it out of that loop I have to reset the bios and install just a couple sticks of memory and it runs fine.
After browsing the forum here I see that I am not the only one having issues with 8gb of memory - so my question is this;
What is a good starting point (BIOS settings) in my case to get myself up and running with 8gb of memory?
I have not full tested each module individually with memtest yet, but I am confident they are all good. I'll work on that while I await a reply.
Thanks.
Luke
