Hello,

I've purchased a 4 x 4GB Team Extreme 2133MHz Kit from Overclockers about 4 months ago.

When I put all of the DIMMS in my PC, It wouldnt Boot, I got a Memory Warning Light on my Motherboard and that was it.

After A lot of testing and swapping about it turns out that one of the DIMMS doesnt seem to work with the others?

If its in by it self it works perfectly, but if the rest of the DIMMS are plugged in then the PC wont boot.

So I've kind of left it for quite a while and been running 3 DIMMS, although come to a point where I really want to get it sorted...

Any tips on what to look out for to try and fix the issue? Maybe its unstable?

Any Help would be very appreciated!

Thanks.
 
No matter what slot it is, ALL 4 DIMMS dont work together, the best I got was 3, since one of them doesn't want to work with the others.
 
Yeah, ok will do in a second. Tried downloading new BIOS but it wont let me install.
I'll report back in a couple of mins
 
Ok.... so when i first bought the kit I put all of the DIMMS in and spent 3 days trying to make it work.... and nothing, still wouldnt boot even after all the expert advise i got 4 month ago on a different forum...

Now... the first thing I did was put that 4th DIMM in to see what happens and its magically started working ???? Ermmm now the next step is to get it to its 2133mhz, I forgot how to do it but you have to do something in the BIOS settings right ?

Lets hope that getting it to 2133mhz wont make the problem come back though... haha.

Thanks!!
