Campari_Kurita Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 I use XP64 bit.. so windows should not be a Problem! But even with MMIO Enabled the Bios doesnt Detect more than 2 GB... what can i do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madian225 Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Hi This has been as issue for a number of people previously and perhaps you should have used the search function first. As I understand it windows itself is it not able to recognise 4 GB of RAM due to possible driver conflicts, if my memory serves me correctly the max that it will recognise is 3 GB even if you have 4 GB installed.

suspekt Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 I think 4GB should be recognized in Windows x64. Is the MMIO setting the same as "Remap memory above 4GB" found in most BIOSes? Can't remember if there is such a setting in DFI bios, but if there is you have to enable it. Or is it "Memory hole" ? .. well look and see if there is any difference enabling these.

Campari_Kurita Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Once again, i do not have a prob with the windows 4G Limitation! The BIOS doesn't Show me more RAM and therefore no App/OS does show me my Additional 2 Gig... Linux doesnt and neither does the Built in Memtest!

suspekt Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 How about clearing the sticks one by one? It's like in every guide and every mem thread on this board. Come back when you've searched and tested the default suggested actions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campari_Kurita Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Of Course I Tested all sticks! When i use only 2 all of them work Togehter (tried 1&2, 1&3, 1&4,2&3 etc.). A Hardware Fault is almost imposibble.... Is there a "special" Bios for use with 4 GIG or somethin? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suspekt Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Not that I know of. What bios are you using now? Try disabling 1T command rate in the BIOS. It's in the Genie BIOS section, under CPC. I have no personal experience with the type of stick that you have, maybe they aren't capable of doing 1T with 4 sticks. I belive Angry games is doing it tho, but I don't know what sticks he is using to run 1T. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campari_Kurita Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Soooo... just finished the Christmas event as appropriate ....back to tuning I already deaktivated it since i read in the NF4 Memory guide that it isnt possible to run 4 Modules with 1T... I'm currently using a Standard Bios from August! PS: Bye the waynice to see one European here....where are u from in Sweden? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suspekt Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 Northern part of Sweden. Don't know what BIOS that is, but I assume it is the 623 bios. Try swapping over from whatever memory revision you are using, and try them all: 623-1, 623-2 and 623-3. If 4GB isn't possible, you could try flashing to the 704-2BTA. Try loading defaults in BIOS and verifying 4GB is possible before altering timings and other things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
