New A-Bit AS8 locks up when adding 2nd memory stick
Posted: Wed Nov 03, 2004 3:28 am
Please help. I just built a new computer using a A-Bit AS8 motherboard
which has 4 memory slots expanding to 4gig. I put 1 DDR 256MB 2700,
333MHz card in slot one and everything worked fine. I then added another 256MB in slot 3(as directed by Abit) and when I turn on the computer it reads the following:
Phoenix Award BIOS v 6.00PG
Main Processor: Intel P4 CPU 2.85 GHz (204x14.0)
Memory Test: 524288k OK
CPU Brand Name: Intel P4 CPU 280GHz
Hyper Thread Technology CPU Detected (HTT enabled)
Press DEL to enter Setup
08/18/04 i865PE-W83627-6A79AA1MC-15
Then it freezes. Won't go to BIOS and won't load windows
Anything else I can do?
