I've read through a number of these threads, and wish I'd bought another brand of memory with my mobo.
Regardless, I've been unable to get it to recognize and post with both DIMM's installed (which seems to be a recurring issue). I've upgraded the BIOS to F2.
My new build:
Intel E8500
Gigabyte GA-X48-DS4
Corsair Dominator XMS2-8500 (2x2gb)
Corsair PSU 750W
Visiontek ATI 4870
I've tried numerous BIOS settings based on what I've read here, but if both sticks are in it refused to post.
When both are in, it starts up, immediately powers back down, then reboots. Gets to the Gigabyte initial screen, then freezes. Remove one stick, then it reboots but the BIOS settings are pretty much set back to defaults.
If I have only one stick in, it works fine and boots normally. I've tried it with both sticks, have run Memtest on both with no failure.
Here are the latest settings I've tried:
MB Intelligent Tweaker(M.I.T.)
Robust Graphics Booster ...............: Auto
CPU Clock Ratio ..........................: 9X
Fine CPU Clock Ratio.....................: +0.5
CPU Frequency ...........................: 3.166Ghz (333x9.5)

Any help, guidance, suggestions are very welcome!
