Bios where yellow slots work?

[gdogg]

Please dont move this to overclock section, I am on defaults rights now.

Hello I did a search, and came up empty on this one.

 

The yellow slots wont work at all for me with my 2X1GB ddr 400 2-3-2-6 moduals.

 

I am trying to use 4GB of ram, but the yellow slots just dont work, they worked when I had UTT memory, now they dont work at all.

 

Any ideas anyone?

 

I have tried disabling dram bank interleave, and cpc.

 

I have tried 2 yellow slots 1 in orange, no post.

I have tried 2 in orange , posts, but shows only 2GB.

There can be an issue with some marginal 165 opterons as basically they are the only ones I have seen do this very much...and it IS by far BETTER if all the sticks in pairs came from the same batch and have the same memory IC making up the stick and all sticks having the same SPD or the board will throw a fit...

ok thanks rgone.

 

I will try my best to get this working then.

 

one set is mushkin hp 3200's 2X1Gb

and the other are the ocz's in the sig.

 

same spd's and same timings atleast

edit

I guess I'll just have to sell the memory. since the chances of getting 4GB working even with same brand, and model is low.
