    Hi, Just got this motherboard second hand and set it up in a case this weekend. After I had it all set up(6 sticks installed), I was getting 3 beeps(ram). I know the ram works cause I just had it in a older case and it worked fine. So here is what I have:

    2 sticks of 2GB DDR2(533Mhz) 1.8v Non-ECC

    2 sticks of 1GB DDR2(667Mhz) 1.8v Non-ECC

    So far I am only able to get the 1GB sticks working. This is the first Dual Channel motherboard I have had so maybe I'm doing something wrong there... If I am unable to get all 6GB of ram working, Then I would prefer to get the 533Mhz ram working as I have more of it. I know product spec only says to only use 667 or 800 but I am assuming 533 still works. Am I wrong? Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks in advance!

    try cleaning the contacts on the memory sticks with rubbing alcohol & Qtips.
    blowout the memory slots with compressed air.
    look up the manufacture of the motherboard to see if you have the right type
    of memory.
