i have the same mother board and cpu + 2gig x2 Kingston hypex + power supply coolmaster extreme power duo 650w + xfx 8800gtx 768mb. The fan start spinning and i can see my power light is on but on my monitor i didnt see anything xept the black screen. I take everything out and put them all back together also check to see if i miss any unplug wires then try again a few times but its still the same, still didnt get any signal from the monitor. is it that my M-board is not compatible w/ the memory ? or i should exchange for a dif mother board ?


thank you

dai

are you seeing the post screens
if not
set it up out of the case on a piece of cardboard with
cpu
video
ram
speaker
and see if you get post
check you have the correct amount of standoffs no more no less
that they line up with the holes in the m/board
usually 9

i'm confused, what do you mean by ... see if you get post
check you have the correct amount of standoffs no more no less
that they line up with the holes in the m/board
usually 9

post is the computer has booted correctly
you know this by the single bios you hear when you start the computer
standoffs are what screw into the backing plate and the m/b attaches to
you have to have 1 for each hole and they must line up with the holes
no more and no less
your inicial post says you are using this card
xfx 8800gtx
if it is inserted into the m/b use it or remove it from the slot

Anyway thx for the info, but i already returned and exchange for a dif mobo which is Asus p5Q pro lga 775 intel p45, i wonder if this mobo compatible w/ this type of memory ocz2n800sr4gk ( 4gig ), cuz i check the board's manual the one that work with it is ocz2p8004gk

dai

would expect it to work
check the voltage is set to 2.0 or 2.1v
try with one stick in windows 32x may have a problem inicially until set up with both sticks in
to make use of the 4g you need win64x
