GA-H55M-USB motherboard and OCZ DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz (OCZ3G1333LV4GK) 1.65v

Hi, thanks for the info (again).

I have already ordered the 4GB RAM, so I guess I may have to make do for now, and buy some more modules in a few weeks.
I will need some RAM for the other Motherboard as well. So it wont get wasted. And 4GB should be enough for the internet and basic media player stuff.

Out of interest.
Is it possible to run in dual module mode for 2 RAM expansion slots while the other runs on single?
For example, installing 2 x 4GB on one side and 1 x 4GB on the other?

No problem if not, like the rest of life, I will work around.
Thanks again.

I would try and return the memory as even if you purchase another 4 GB stick later it won't be matching and therefore probably won't work stably together. You must buy matching kits.

Sure. Thanks for the advice.

I think that maybe the order isn't sent out yet.
I will try and follow your advice. Otherwise, I can always use it in my spare.
And get some more later for the triple boot.

Cheers.

Incidentally, think that this should not be too tricky as have discovered EasyBCD program for setting up bootloaders in Windows.
This program is really easy to use and lets you set up a bootloader to multi boot quiet a few OS from a boot menu on start up.

While I wait, I am now onto a new project, designing a contempory and innovative MIDI control surface for Mix engineering in pro audio mixing recording studios. *Not DJ studio but recording studio.

And have found quiet a lot of interesting info on basic electronics for this purpose.

Anyway, sorry to go off on one there.
Thanks again, your a life saver mate.

No problem at all. Just glad to be of help.

As far as any advice you need on the audio recording side of things the best person to speak to would be absic, the AMD moderator, as he does a lot of his own music and mixing etc.

Thanks for the advice mate.

However, this is one area that I have a fair bit of knowledge in.
I also write, engineer, produce my own music, and other peoples.

Also have a BA degree in sound technology, which coved in depth quite a broad array of sound technology including pro studio engineering in fairly high specification recording studios, purpose built studios equipped with high end pro audio recording equipment (AMEK, Focustite, Lexicon, Yamaha Digital Pro Audio, etc.)

And have some qualifications in Art and design (which is handy for the designing aspects).
But still, appreciate the consideration mate.

As you say it doesn't sound like you need a lot of help in that field. Maybe you can help some others here on the forum as we often get questions on audio.  ;)

Hey Mate,
sure, I would be happy to.
I have a fair knowledge on most aspects of home/pro audio.
From driver issues on motherboards, to choosing the right DJ software, or music app for composing or recording,
to even choosing the right pro audio equipment.
Would be happy to help.  8)

However, If I do manage to realise my control surface design in reality,
I may recommend my control surface as the best one to buy  ;D
Which, in all fairness, it probably will be.

Happy to help. Share the love bro.
All selfless acts deserve to be repaid.
Cheers
