GA_MA785GM-US2H Memory Problem

[cloud69]

I have a GA-MA785GM-US2H rev 1.0 mobo, I have problem in dual channel configuration since if i put 1 stick each on ddr2_1 and ddr2_2 it will not work keeps on beeping. same as with ddr2_3 and ddr2_4.

my configuration right now is ddr2_1 and ddr2_3 which is single channel. I am using Kingston 1gb ddr2 pc800 sticks.

What could be the cause of this?

Is your memory on the QVL list?

Are you using the latest BIOS? And did you start by loading optimized defaults in the BIOS and then setting your ram voltage?

i don't know if it is in the QVL list, but this pair work on my other rig. I have the latest BIOS for my mobo. I didn't touch anything in the BIOS.

Is your other rig the same motherboard?

You need to load optimized defaults in the BIOS, then save and apply and reboot (F10)

Then go into the BIOS and set your ram voltage to the spec amount shown on the sticker of the memory.

i have done this and increased my ram voltage from 1.8v to 1.9v but still the same. 3 long beeps.

i got a question. if the memory controller for the athlon ii x2 is located in the processor, could it be possible that the processor is defective? or it is the mobo. i have read from another forum same situation different board.
