Edit: I updated the bios of my mobo (without precaution) and it's still showing up 512mb :(

How much Ram support your Motherboard?

Check your Ram Specs and make sure your mobo support it.
Make sure in bois both slots (channels) are working equal?
Like you say your ram is the same specs? check it good.
The wierd is your Z App is showing the new Ram also.

this is what i found on google/yahoo

Quote:Make sure you have the proper memory. Proper speed etc. Make sure you populate the motherboard according to spec. Some won't recognize memory if not in correct order. always put in same sized modules. IE 2 512's forget the 256.

Also does your video card use shared ram?

No.

For me its that the Ram modules are not the same.
Make sure about everything of the specs.

asurabp · 16/10/2011 01:44 AM
