i have a asus mobo: P5G41T-M LX
CPU: Q6600
windows 7 64bit (enterprise edition)
PSU: 800w by xion
GPU:ati 6950 2gb
the corsair memory im trying to install is,
SKU# CMX8GX3M2A1333C9
the system is not in anyway overclocked.
problem:
i removed the old kingston x2 4gb sticks, popped these in, which ive done millions of times w/o issue..
i check and double check everything is secure, no loose wires..etc.
press the power button... it turns on, then turns off...then back on again..stays on, BUT the screen wont even goto post or to bios...
i take them both out, put the kingston back in, sure enough, they work...
so at this point, i know its the corsairs..
so i put ONE corsair in the channel, and the other channel is kingston.
it boots to bios, look at memory, it doesnt even see the corsair, does the kingston..
so i switch out that corsair for the other corsair, the machine just turns on, off then back on again.
so im pretty sure its the corsair sticks, but want to make sure to be on the safe side...
my mobo supports 800/1066/1333 OC, dual channel, obviously.
i sent a ticket into corsair, but it being the weekend, wont hear back from them for a while...
any ideas...suggestions, i might just return them back to the store where i bought them from and switch out for another pair.
on corsairs memory finder, it doesnt show my board.
