Post by: Atul on December 22, 2013, 11:50:14 am

Hi,

I assembled one PC for my practice the configuration is below:

Processor : i5 4670
MOBO: GA-Z87D3H
RAM DDR3 16GB/1600 MHTZ CORSIRE
OS: WINDOWS 8 PRO 64 BIT
POWER SUPPLY: 600W

Problem:-

Initially when I started the work on this PC, My display start the flicking.  I am using LG's monitor. I called LG support they exchange the monitor after that problem did not resolved. Then I communicated with GIGABYTE support they suggest to upgrade BIOS. I upgraded the BIOS from F6 to F8. Now i am getting on emore problem that BIOS  is showing HALF RAM.

Please suggest how I can resolve this problems display flickering and half RAM. I am very irritated from this MOBO.

I will be very thankful of you.

Regards
Atul

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I am using D-SUB port.

Regarding half issue RAM i have resolved. Please check the below steps which I used.

1. Fetch out all the RAM slots from mother board and check one by one.  All were working fine.
2. I did not insert any ram in MOBO and clear the CMOS.
3. Restart the machine without RAM.
4. Plug-off the machine and fitted ram in MOBO.
5. Now BIOS was showing 16GB full RAM :-)

Now from last 2-3 days my PC is working fine. I am testing for flickering problem.  If i face again then i come back on this forum..

Thanks again
