The problem seems to be that the defualt BIOS is set to run the RAM at 1.8v, when it needs to be running at 2.2v, which should be an easy fix, if you can get the damn thing to bios.
Ok. here's what I've tried so far.
Swapping both sticks of ram to different channels of the same colour.
Swapping each stick of ram one by one to see if it will POST.
Taking EVERYTHING except the PSU out and 1 stick of RAM to see if it will post.
Putting each component back in one by one and then seeing if it will post.
Removing everything, removing CMOS battery, hitting clear CMOS button, remove power and then reinsert to see if it will post - nadda nothing zip.
I'm gonna see if I can aquire a crappy peice of RAM tomorrow, but looking doubtful. Anyeone else with any ideas? All I need is to get to the damn bios screen!
The specs of the PC are
ASUS M2 Crosshair Mobo
AMD Phenom Quad Core CPU
Nvidia GeForce 8800GT
2x 2gig 240 pin RAM
Phillips DVD-R Drive
Any ideas?Statistics: Posted by pevil — Wed Feb 27, 2008 2:04 pm
