Hi there,
have an x58 usb3 on the latest beta bios (5fc
i think) running a Xeon x5650 no issues.
However, i have 8gb ram running dual channel. At the moment they are in DIMM slots 1 and 5. If i insert the sticks into DIMM 1 and 3 i only get 4gb showing as active on the bios screen. The strange thing is that the RAM is shown in the 3rd DIMM slot but isn't available.
I have tried running triple channel in 1,3 and 5 but same issue RAM in 3rd slot isn't available.
Another side note is that when trying to boot into windows with a stick in slot 3 results in a "detecting VRAM" message followed by a boot loop.
Does this mean slot 3 is a dead one ?
regards Andrew
