Removed the cpu & no bent pins. Looks like it may be a motherboard issue after all. Updated to the latest bios as well. Im running out of things left to check
So here's what I've tried so far
Checked cpu, no bent pins.
No visable damage to the motherboard
Flashed bios to the newest version F14
Unplugged everything. Cleared cmos.
Pc will only post with ram in dimm3, both sticks work fine in that slot, but no others
Ram works fine with xmp on @ rated speeds. Tried booting @lower speed as well.
Installed windows, all seems okay, but can only use one stick of ram
Do you guys think it's a faulty motherboard?
