Im have trouble with one im building for a home media unit. The trouble im having is that it wont boot with two sticks of memory in. What I have noticed is that there are two little lights/leds at each memory slot.

When using Memory slot one the light is green and it boots fine.
When using memory slot two the light is red but it boots fine.
When using memory slots one and two, memory slot one is green but two is red but it wont boot

The memory i have tried is OCZ pc2 6400 and also CorsairXMS 5400 but I still get the same results.

Could It be a faulty SG33G5M? If any one has one could they confirm what memory they are using and also the colour of led lights.

Ive been to the shuttle site but can find naf all help

Cheers

I have the SG33G5, I can confirm that it should be green + red when using two sticks of ram. Mine boots fine with 2 x 2gb sticks of OCZ vista plat 6400 or 2x corsair 5400 (I had corsair then switched to the 4gig kit)

Have you checked the mem voltage? often you have to up the voltage, try 2v
 
O.K this is were I am at know......things are getting worse :( . I up the voltage to 2v and booted with one stick of memory in then shut down and put two sticks in , it then refused to boot and hasnt done since. even after the bios battery was removed for a cpl of hours.

What know?
