64bit and 128bit? HELP!!

bloodline76 · 15 Jan 2007 at 17:10

I have a K8vse MB and already have 2 512 sticks of ram in my board.

The MB only has 3 slots so I bought a 1 g stick but this is 128bit.

Tried all three and this gets to the desktop then reboots.

The MB states that these are 64bit slots.

Does that mean that I will not be able to use the all three or even just use the 128 bit one at all?

I can run the 128bit on its own, will this damage it or the MB

Thanks!

Does that mean that I cant use it?

Works with 1g(128bit) and one 512mb(64bit) in.

Will it damage it if I leave it like that?

It does work with the 1gig stick in.

But on the MB it says that this is a 64bit slot. Does that mean that I cant use the 128bit in it. Which seems to be working ok?

But it is working. It is running now as we speak.

The max that the MB can have is 3g ram i think.

I was just wondering as it says 64bit slots. But the 1g is 128bit, or double sided as you say.

Is that ok to run?

So will it be ok in computer?

I am not sure. I changed the ram around, as I have two 512mb of the same kind. But putting the gig in the last slot made it reboot. Switched the gig for the first slot and it seemed to work. I added a stick at a time which seemed to work.

Thanks for your help.
