My dual channel doesn´t Work :S

I have this Ram ->Kingston KVR400X64C3AK1/1G (2 x 1 modules 512 mb), and if i put the two modules enabling the dual channel, putting 1 onto 2nd channel and 1 onto 3rd channel mi pc goes down while i´m in windows, it´s restarts once and once again, 1 minute left or 1 minute before, it´s random but it crashes. I tried to configure the memory modules in a single channel, and it works.
How can i make to work my pc in dual channel?
thxs for your time, and sorry ofr my english i´m spanish
ag3r

Not really. Adding an extra 512mb of ram to my machine helped with framerates and stuff, but loading UT2004 Assault maps with dual channel PC2100 memory was just as slow as it was with single channel. It's only 3 to 5 percent and not worth the extra time/money for him, IMO. I never would have done it had I known there was no performance gain, I would have instead sold my 512mb DIMM, lived without my comp for a few days and then put the money towards a 1gb DIMM. :D
I often wonder why AMD board manufacturers even bother wasting their time and money putting dual channel on their athlon xp mobos. Even Athlon 64's that are not FX chips don't take advantage of dual channel.

  • Dual channel doesn't work in green but does in green/purple?

    Just bought 2 512mb OCZ PC3200 Plat. rev. 2 and tried to put both sticks into Channel A (green).  My system didn't post, and the Dbar had 1 green in the upper right corner (saying memory damaged or installed improperly).  So, I moved one of the modules to the first purple DIMM slot; now I have DIMM 0 and DIMM 1 filled.  I noticed in the manual that I should fill the green slots first, then the purple.  
    Is this going to be a problem having one DIMM on green and the other on purple?  My sandra test shows that I have about 5950mb/s memory bandwidth; would both greens be slightly higher than that?  Am I going to be screwed for overclocking?

    READ THE MANUAL
    they are COLOR CODED for a reason..
    Green is DDR CHANNEL A - Purple is DDR CHANNEL B
    of course DUAL CHANNEL will only work when you have one MODULE in EACH CHANNEL, as is the nature of DUAL CHANNEL

  • Importing mov with alpha channel doesn't work

    Installed the new and "improved" Premiere Pro CC 2014 and having lots of issues.
    First off, importing .movs with an alpha channel doesn't work.
    Second, the playback in Premiere is much worse, dropped frames and dropped audio quite frequently.
    Anyone have any solutions or experiencing similar problems?

    Use PNG-24.

  • Z97 Gaming 5, Dual Channel RAM not working?

    Here are my specs for the moment , Windows 7, Intel Core i7 4770k, 8,00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz (9-9-9-24), Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 (EVGA)
    As the title says dual RAM is not working, when I put all 4 RAM sticks in their slots or even just two in dual channel mode my monitor will not respond and the screen is just black, can't even go to BIOs.
    The BIOs settings are at 1333 MHz and 1.5 v, I've tried raising the volt and lowering it, anyone have any ideas?
    I've tried the 1-3 and 2-4 slots with two 4gb sticks and it does not work, but the 1-2 and 2-4 works fine, have also tried all the individual sticks so none of them are faulty.
    RAM: Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1333MHz 16GB KIT CL9 4x4

    Please clarify. You mean a single stick works in 2 or 4 but not 2 and 4 together? So that means DIMM slot #3 is the only one that doesn't work at all? My suspicion is a grounding or short under the mainboard by an errant standoff, or the DIMM slot has some debris in it, or the slot is just plain faulty. Other possible is a pin problem in the CPU socket.

  • Can't get Dual Channel mode to work

    Hello,
    I have a pair of 512MB DDR400 ram sticks (listed in my sig).
    The Memory Slots are arranged like this:
                1 2   3  
    [cpu]    |  |    |
    I put each stick in slot 1 and 2 and no workie, still Single Channel Mode.
    I put a stick in slot#2 and #3, no workie.
    I put a stick in slot#1 and slot#3, no workie.
    Is there something else that I'm missing or did I just buy the wrong memory for dual channel operation? It was not a matched set, but it is the same no-name brand of memory I bought from newegg.com. They both have the same 3225804T-5 marking on them...
    They are supposed to be 2.5CS and that is what my bios is set to. I don't have any special settings in the bios that I know of..
    Let me know if you have any ideas or if I need to post more information.
    Thank You!

    Not sure about this but is that motherboard based on the Nvidia nForce2 400 chipset?
    What does the manual specs say?
    If it is then it doesnt have 2 memory controllers and can only do single channel.

    That your mobo?

  • Dual Channel Does Not Work!!!

    As the title states, I can not get anything to work in dual channel mode.  I have tried 3 pairs of matched memory, and they all do pretty much the same thing.  These are the modules tried:  
    Mushkin: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-146-289&depa=0
    Corsair:  http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-145-432&depa=0
    OCZ:  http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-146-882&depa=0
    After perusing this forum I found several things to try, so I tried them all, even bought a new PSU, nothing helps.  Then I actually called tech support, after about an hour on the phone(on my own dime) they decided it was a bad mobo...(which was my assumption and why I called..)
    Anyways, here is what happens when I try to boot with default settings, and SPD.  It will either post and freeze while trying to load windows, or it will not post, and hang during the process, at which point the monitor loses signal.  The only way I can get it to load windows in dual channel mode is if I set the DRAM freq down to 266 and raise the latency values far from spec, and then it is highly unstable in windows...On top of all this, the only ram that is stable in single channel mode is the OCZ, but only when 1 module is installed...in bank 1.........can someone please help me!!

    Quote
    Why do I have to set the DRAM voltage to 2.9v, when everyone else has theirs set to 2.75 - 2.8v ???
    you shouldnt. even corsair recommends to set their stuff to 2.7v or 2.8v and i have never heard that anyone needed more voltage on his/her memory in order to make it run stable in dual channel mode.
    since you've said that you have done "all the little tricks" posted in the forum i dont know what to advice further on. maybe you tell us what you have already done...

  • Center channel doesn't work

    Hi
    I just purchased a CL SBS 580 5.1 speaker system and a SB Audigy SE sound card. The installation of the sound card was uneventful, and sounds do work. Mostly, anyway. I installed it with the 5.1 speaker settings. Then I proceeded to disable my integrated nVidia sound chip on the motherboard that was previously working as my sound device. First thing I noticed was that WinAmp only seems to use the front channels and the subwoofer. I don't know whether this is a bug or a feature. After noticing this I ran a diagnostic on the setup. In the channel test, all other channels sounded fine except the center channel, which was mute. I switched around the right rear and center channels, and discovered that the speaker itself works fine (in the diagnostic, anyway). But the center channel doesn't. No white noise with the 'noise' test, and no female voice with the 'channel' test.
    Yes it's plugged in properly into the center channel on the sub, yes it's turned on and yes the volume is at an audible level, both on the speakers themselves and in the sound card volume control.
    Here is the diagnostics log:

    Ok, so now I tried to play a DVD movie with my DVD-drive. Before I got this new Audigy sound card and SBS 580 speakers, movies would run almost fine, as in the video and sound would be smooth unless there was a great deal of action occurring, in which case it would be slightly choppy. But now, the video seems to change pace, occasionally stopping entirely for a few seconds, then running again, but slowly, then running normal, then becoming choppy, stopping again, and so on. Also, the sound does the same, sounding almost normal one second and choppy the next. But the biggest deal is the fact that I don't hear any speech! I read somewhere that the center channel handles speech in video playback, and without it I can't hear any talking.
    Is the subwoofers center channel broken and should I go get another set with the warranty, or whats the problem?

  • Rradeon HD 7690 dual-graphics doesn't work in hp pavilion dv6z-6c00 cto quad edition laptop?

    I recently purchased an HP Pavilion dv6z-6c00 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC from HP's online store. The laptop was customized with a  Radeon HD 7690M discrete graphics card. There is a "dual-graphics" feature that allows a program to be configured to use either the low-power integrated graphics (a Radeon HD 6520G) or the high-performance discrete graphics (the Radeon HD 7690M). However, even when I set a program to use "high performance graphics", the program refuses to use anything but the low-power integrated graphics. When I use ATI's driver, it calls the card a "6700 series", and the card still does not work; when using HP's driver, it calls it the proper name, but the ATI Catalyst Control Center does not work (necessary to assign programs to the discrete card). There is no setting in BIOS to set the computer to use either card exclusively: in fact, there are no graphics settings, period.
    Some examples of the games I have tried are:
    - Minecraft (I know OpenGL does not work with Dynamic Graphics)
    - Portal 2 (Direct X, so should work in theory)
    Will I have to get the "special" BIOS update (outdated) that adds the setting for graphics switching?

    I suggest dowloading and installing the latest driver for the radeon HD graphics module from the web support portal for your notebook.
    What is the p/n for your notebook? (you can remove the main battery and get it from there or from the HP Support Assistant)

  • Backspace to delete aux channels doesn't work here

    How is it that in LPX I can't delete unused aux channels in the environment? I did it flawlessly in LP9, using backspace after having select it, but it seems to not work in X. It works only in the Mixer window... Why???
    Any help?
    Thanks

    I have a similar rule to purge email. Works like a champ.
    Since the rule isn't being automatically applied to incoming email, you first need to select the mailbox that contains your "old email". Select all the email in that mailbox, then either go to the Mail menu (Messages>Apply Rules) to run the rule, or use Option Command-L.
    Make sure that's the only Rule you want to run, otherwise ALL your selected rules will be applied! In other words DESELECT (uncheck) rules you don't want to apply...
    Hope that helps.

  • Problem with dual channel memory (B75MA-P45)

    Hello,
    I can't make the dual channel memory working.
    When I put DDR3 in slots 2 + 4 or slots 1 + 3 and even if all slots are installed with the same DIMM, it does not boot and restart in loop.
    Currently, this mobo works with DDR3 in slots 1 + 2 (so without dual channel).
    I have read posts about bent pins, therefore I inspected the CPU seating but nothing seems wrong.
    My CPU has been recovered from a HP pavilion ; don't know whether it's important or not.
    Hope someone has a tip for me.
    My configuration:
    Motherboard: B75MA-P45
    CPU: i5-2320
    Memory: tried several, finally tested 4 x 4GB Kingston PC3-10600 CL9 240 (KVR13N9S8/4)
    Graphic card: Palit GeForce GTX-750 Ti

    Thanks for your answers.
    I'll try asap slots 3 & 4.
    It's almost a new build (one month ago). The whole story is:
    I bought the motherboard and two memory sticks of 2 and 4 GB DDR3 as I already had similar ones on my HP pavilion (but not exactly the same, not same brand). I expected to run on 12 GB dual channel memory. But the dual channel did not work at first try. After some additionnal testing, I tought it was because the sticks aren't compatible ones with others. So I purchased 3 sticks of Kingston 4 GB, exactly the same reference as one I already have.
    Now, I'm pretty sure that this problem isn't related to memory sticks.
    I already did a clear CMOS during installation for other reason but it didn't solve this problem.
    Since, this PC works well with Win7. I tested it under considerable stress and it runs just fine.

  • MBP will not access n on TC Dual Band. Firmware 7.4.1 doesn't work either.

    So maybe I'm missing something.
    I have the Time Capsule dual band. Brand new. An Apple Care replacement of my original Time Capsule (non dual band). 1 TB versions.
    Replaced because I can't access the 5ghz band from my MacBook Pro.
    MacBook Pro 15"
    Model Identifier: MacBookPro2,2
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2.16 GHz
    Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x87)
    Wireless Card Locale: USA
    Wireless Card Firmware Version: 1.4.8.3
    Current Wireless Network: xxxx
    Wireless Channel: 11
    I currently have the TC set with Radio Mode 802.11a/n-802.11g only. My MBP will only join the g side. I know this because holding down the Option key and looking at the Airport Menu icon shows I'm on channel 11 at Transmit Rate of 54.
    In Airport Utility under Airport/Wireless/Wireless Options I have also allow the 5ghz network name to be shown.
    I my Airport Menu if I select this 5ghz network I'm asked for the password. I type in the password and get connection timed out. All the time.
    Now the interesting part:
    The TC has firmware 7.4. If I upgrade it to 7.4.1 my computer will not even see the Time Capsule at all. I have to do a hard restart of the TC and immediately downgrade the Firmware back to 7.4.
    Interesting part number two is:
    I have an original Airport Extreme. The first release of the n Airport. If I try and use this unit at 5ghz also, my MBP will get the same Connection Timeout. But the MBP will work on n band at 2.4ghz. BThis running firmware 7.3.6 ( I think that is it). IF I upgrade this unit to 7.4.1? Again I will not even be able to see the Airport on my MBP. Again I have to down grade the unit to 7.3.6 after a hard restart.
    So for me the 7.4.1 update is not workable. And Apple replaced my original TC twice with the same results. I returned them and they sent me the newest TC. And as stated above, the same results.
    So 7.4.1 doesn't work at all for me.
    5ghz n band doesn't work for me.
    Any ideas? I'm assuming my Airport Card in the MBP is defective at this stage. It can't access 5ghz, And working on sending out the computer for check up to Apple. Or a Genius Bar visit.
    Anyone else having n access on their computers? And the 7.4.1 Firmware?

    Update to my post above- this is SO weird
    If I manually select channel 40 on the 5ghz band, I can access 5ghz. I do not get the Connection Timeout. I on it right now.
    Before I manually selected channel 40 the TC was in channel 149.
    Does this mean anything? Now I'm not sure if the Airport Card in my MBP is defective or not.

  • Gaming 3 motherboard not working with dual channel ram

    Hello,
    Whenever I try to put the RAM in dual channel (slots 1/3 or 2/4) in the motherboard Gaming 3 (z97), the motherboard stops working, and starts a loop of getting power for two seconds, and turning off again.. untill I kill the mains.
    This doesn't happen when the Ram is in single channel (slots 1 and 2)
    The ram is Corsair Value select 4 GB x2
    My specs are:
    Intel i5-4690k
    Nvidia Gtx 750 Ti
    MSI Gaming 3 motherboard
    Corsair Value select 4 GB x 2
    Samsung Evo 128 GB SSD
    The bios version is 2.3
    Any help would be great. Is it a motherboard specific problem? Or voltage issues?

    Hi,
    can you refer to manual and check which DIMM slots are default? As far as I know, they're 1 and 3.
    Test each RAM stick individually, by going from DIMM #1 until #4. Working fine? Test the other same way. Also look around CPU socket and RAM slots for any scratches or other unusual stand offs. Also try to lower RAM down to 1333 and try again.

  • My weather channel app doesn't work and freezes my phone

    My weather channel app doesn't work and freezes my phone.  I've tried closing the app.  Also tried deleting and readding it.  All my other apps work.

    Try this:
    Make sure your iPhone is fully updated.
    Restart your iPhone
    Do NOT open the app, just delete it
    Reset your iPhone (hold down sleep/wake and home buttons simultaneously until you see an apple logo, then release the buttons)
    Readd the app
    Open the app and test.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue, then it may be an issue with the app itself and you might have to contact the app's developer.

  • AUDIGY 2 ZS PLATINUM PRO : 8-Channel (7.1) Playback in WINDVD 6 Platinum doesn't work proper

    Ok here's the deal.
    I have a Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro
    Furthermore I own WINDVD 6 PLATINUM (incl. Booster pack) which supports 8 channel audio.
    My speaker system is an analog one. The 8 speaker Creative Inspiron one.. don't know the exact name.
    I just did a clean installation of Windows.
    I am running windows XP Home SP2 with all latest updates.
    Furthermore I installed all Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro updates there are.
    Anyways..
    Whenever I switch to 8 channel (7.) playback from within WinDVD only the center and the 2 front channels work. The side (surround) and rear channels aren't working at all!
    I get the same problem when I switch to 7 channel (6.) from within WinDVD.
    When I click on test (in WinDVD) to see if the channels are working.. the test noise only appears in the front and center channels. However once it gets to the rear channel there's nothing.. and at the side left channel there's this quiet odd noise.
    If I switch to 5. (from within WinDVD) mode.. everything is working perfectly... but 5. only..
    I want to take full advantage of my soundcard.. and even though WinDVD supports this soundcard.. it doesn't seem to work.
    Any other application... CUBASE SX2 or games such as Call of Duty work perfectly fine with all channels.
    Can anyone help me?
    Can you recommend any other 8 channel software DVD playback software?
    Thanks

    first of all your questions ain't stupid...you got to learn/understand once right?
    **bleep** 3 yrs ago i thought i knew digital audio (mp3/wave on PC and Philips DCC recorder) but then came Dolby Digital & hardwaredecoding...LOL... Lots of differences in channelprocessing & so misconfiguration possible.
    Well I hope you didn't uninstall your dvd player software... I mean software audiodecoding like matrixmixer(that you can find in codecpacks, all **bleep** that uses directx this because most of it is max 6bit LOL) ..your talking about all your extra dvd software.(but you don't need their extra audio playing features). Just select the sp-dif audio in WinDVd PowerDVD or NVDVD whateverDVD and then go check the creative soundcard speakersetup(not the windows speakersetup , but prefer to use the creative surroundmixer (click the THX logo/icon under in the creative mixer, and calibrate analog speaker output) etc.
    You only need the player 4 dvd playing acces. (DVD-V DVD-A) (prefer the dvd-player for dvd-A in sp-dif mode because then you'll see that some dvd-A's have some videoclips or images. and do check the site of www.slysoft.com and score it in any way )
    .. by the way don't forget this about your analog output 3.5mm jacks on the back og the card:
    first channel = 3.5mm 3-pole jack (stereo)
    second and third channel = 3.5mm 4-pole jack (stereo portable camera cable works (3xrca).
    so don't use stereo jacks on the 2nd & 3th channel...
    You can use a portable stereo camera cable because the've on one side 3xrca(yellow/white/red) and on the other side a plastic 4-pole minijack (plastic=preferred because you probably need to make the 4-pole jack smaller with a metal file (be careful not to harm the cable) these cable's are standard and so very cheap. standard meter long.
