My friend got this motherboard to go with his new (A)M2 system, along with that he picked up some ocz PC2 DDR 800 4-5-4-15 (something like that) ram. with that ram in the computer, it got all sorts of wierd errors, so i had to borrow the ram from a friend's little brother's comp (only person i know with ddr2 ram). It was junk pc3200 ddr2 ram, but it worked, and i installed windows (i'll probably get him into letting me install slackware on it, once i figure out how to properly setup grub for a raid 0) with that ram i was able to update the bios to the latest version, then the ram he purchased originally worked fine. What was the problem with the original bios? was the voltage too low? could it have just been plain inncomptabile? could it have not agreed with the spd timings?
Everything is working fine now, I'm just very curious as to why that happened.
