Hi
So ive got the above mobo had it around 2 1/2 years now and had no issues with my currant system since i built it back then, until 3 weeks ago.
It just woudnt post one day. The on board boot sequence lights stops at the RAM so its picking up a error.
It will how ever post if i press the memOK button on the mobo and run with no further issues.
So i ordered another 8 gig of my current RAM as i thought it was RAM related. Fitted RAM today and still the same only posting from memOK button. Ive tried all RAM sticks on there own and in different configurations but no go. I've updated and rolled back the bios to no avail.
Also not sure if related but some times i get the full 16GB of RAM and other times i only get 11.9GB with 4.1GB in reserve in windows, it always shows 16GB in bios though. Only ever had 8GB before so not sure if its a issue or windows based config.
Any ideas or help please before i look for another board?
Many thanks in advance.
