Silly Dual DDR question

OK,
     Is there a way to verify f a system is running in dual DDR? I have 2 512 Meg sticks in slots 1/3 and Sandra reports 1024 Meg avail, as well as XP Pro. I have not seen anything in the bios to enable/disable, so is it an automatic thing that is sensed when in the right slots at the right size?
Nickursis

It's all auto detect by BIOS. Disable the BIOS startup screen in BIOS and you'll get info from your BIOS while it start detecting components and hardwares installwithin the system.
If it says Dual Channel or Linear Dual Channel, means Dual Channel is activated.

  • How do I: Activate dual DDR in BIOS?

    This is a totally clueless question, i know, but it's important, i think.
    I have two sticks of 256MB RAM and i've placed them in the two slots which are adjacent to eachother on my K7N2G mobo.  Is there anything i have to do to enable the dual DDR channeling in the BIOS or anywhere else?, or is it a function that is just always active?

    just be sure one ram is in dimm 3 thats all no bios switch

  • Info on dual ddr

    Hi all,
    I read an interesting article on dual ddr lately, but I cannot find the link anymore ...
    Does anybody have a link to a good article on dual DDR?

  • Dual DDR problem with K8N Neo2 Platinium.

    Hi all,
    I have a new K8N Neo2 Platinium since last week. My configuration is : AMD 64 Venice 3000+, 2 x 256 MB Kingston Value RAM (KVR400X64C25/256) 160GB Seagate SATA, MSI FX5700 VTD 256MB etc...
    The problem is I cannot work them in dual DDR mode! But they works in single mode very good. I know that my RAM pairs are not in vendor list! But I love my RAMs..They are CL2.5 and I think they are valuable...
    So what can I do?

    Deathstalker , lots of value kinston ram is qualified .
    Just take a look at NF4 testreport:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/html/products/mainboard/testreport_pdf/7125/memory.pdf
    And what you say about value ram vs non jedec spec OC ram is often quite the opposite as valueram follows the jedec spec
    and is a more "hit" than miss with most motherboards contra what OC ram is .
    Dxvideo , make sure you use memory slot 1+2 as said, also try booting to bios with one stick and save cas as 3.0
    then install second module . Se if it helps with looser cas value .They also follow jedec SSTL 2.5v standard
    but is verified by vendor -/+ 0.25v so you can also set voltage manually to 2.6v (or more) to help them out .
    If it worked in dual chl on NF2 doesn't neccesary mean they will on A64 system as this memory controller is more picky than
    the external memory controller on NF2 boards.

  • K7N2G Dual DDR Installation

    Ok, i have 2x256mb DDR400 and 1x512 DDR400 memory sticks. How do I fit them into this board. There are 3 slots, 2 normal and one to activate the dual DDR option. Does this mean that if running dual ddr I can only use 2 of the slots?
    Cheers

    dezza9995,
    You do not need more than 512Mb of RAM for most applications out there. Your best bet is using the two matched 256Mb Sticks. Now if you need a full Gb of RAM, then put the two 256Mb stick in the first Memory Controller and the 512Mb stick in the second Memory Controller.
    Take Care,
    Richard

  • K7N2-L & Corsair XMS2700cas2: no post in dual DDR

    Hi,
    I have a small problem here, I am assembling a rig for a friend, same hardware (CPU 2400+, ram XMS Corsair, vga ATI 9x00Pro, etc) as mine.
    While mine never had any problem, this second rig (512Mb of Corsair XMS PC2700cas2, 2 sticks 256Mb each) is driving me nut because of memory: no way to use both DDR channels.
    I tried to use only one stick, runs fine in any slot: DIMM 1, 2 & 3. I tried BOTH sticks in each DIMM, everytime runs OK.
    Two sticks run OK only when placed on same channel (DIMM 2 & 3).
    NO WAY to have them running in DIMM 1 & 2 or 1 & 3. Swapped sticks between them when making trials, no differences.
    I can change bios setting from SPD to Auto or Manual (and different timings too), no difference, still no post with dual channel.
    I tried to change memory: I have two sticks of XMS Corsair PC2400cas2, it works fine even in double channel and I can place them in ANY combination I want.
    If i try to run the XMS PC2700cas2 sticks on another mobo they work fine..
    I have a 256Mb stick of A-Data PC2700 cas2.5 too, and I tried that plus a XMS PC2700cas2 in Dual DDR, they wok fine! Normally they tell you NOT to mix brands to avoid problems, in this case mixing brands worked fine.
    What is even more interesting is that I CAN USE THE XMS PC2700cas2 IN DUAL CHANNEL IF I ADD THE THIRD STICK OF A-DATA IN DIMM2 (XMS PC2700 in DIMM 1&3, a combination that NEVER worked, plus A-Data in DIMM 2).
    My friend of course refuses to mix ram like that or to run the rig with 768Mb (apart from the fact he doesn't want, we can't, as this PC is a gaming rig he's using Windows 98SE as OS, hence the 512Mb limit...)
    Another funny strange symptom: on bios I see the rows only listed as single row, for instance, DIMM 2 that should be listed as populated row 2&3 only shows row 2, ram count shows correct amount though, both in POST and bios page.
    Using original bios v.3.2 the original Vdimm is show as 2,6v, if I try to overvolt a little to 2,7v, hoping it can help for two channel configuration it can't save the value, after rebooting is again at 2,6v.
    I know this is a known issue of MSI bios, any workaround, apart from flashing one of the even more buggy newer bioses?
    thanks

    ok first off wut board is this a delta-l or a original k7n2-l board
    second wut is the power supply rated at and wut are the numbers off the side i am running the exact same ram and mine are in slots 1 and 3 and work just fine if you can put em in lots 2 and 3 and it boots then it is in dual channel mode as the 1 and 2 are one channel and the 3 slot is the seond channel on the board
    it could be a underpower problem as these ram chips due use a lot of voltage
    and as far as win98 you can run more then 512 mb in it u just need too make sure u use the 384mb registry tweak so it will use the whole amount of ram
    answer these and it may be easier too help ya

  • Dual DDR Problem IRQ_NOT_OR_LESS_EQUAL

    I got this error message when playing games on my system;
    Blue screen on Windows XP Pro SP'2
    IRQL_NOT_OR LESS_EQUAL
    I presumably thoght  it was a faulty RAM. When I removed one of my DIMMS, from Dual DDR Slot, the problem disappeared. But I still want to use Dual DDR feature. Is there any solution for it. (When I use the ram DIMMS one by one there is no problem. But when I use both of them in  different chanels I see this Blue Screen.

    Hello Danny,
                      i have recently started having BSOD problems too,i'd like to say i dont know if i should start a new topic for this so i'm posting here as i'm new to this . I have read various other posts concering similar problems and after reading most of those i tried all the various things as suggested by you and others,my problem is
    that while using Flight simulator MSFS 2002 my PC restarts after a few minutes of
    flying,i recently changed my power supply to a 500w one,i used to use  a 400w one
    and it used to run fine till one day my computer started giving me random restarts and BSOD's with IRQ and STOP errors and i had to format and reinstall  XP because booting into xp had also become a problem,so i changed the PSU and also
    flashed the bios from AMI 1.9 to 2.4 ,now the PC doesnt have problems like freezing while booting but my FS2002 simulator always restarts my PC ,strangely
    FS2004 didnt do it and i was able to use it with the same BIOS settings without a problem,i had run memtest earlier for a short duration and all tests were reported OK(should it be run for any ideal duration ?) and does it stop on its own,i intend to run it again ,i can attach a CPU-Z log for your checking if you need,i have tried everything my RAM timings are set to 2,3,3,5,8 which had worked fine so far even
    with the old PSU which i now know was hugely underpowered for my rig,i have also tried changing voltages RAM @ 2.6 , 2.7 , 2.75 , 2.8  AGP  @ 1.5 , 1.6 , 1.7
    OC to OFF  ,spread spectrum OFF , SPD to slow.fast.turbo,ultra even,32 bit transfers on hard disks to on/off tried everything but i still get reboots only in
    Flight simulator 2002 ,i have'nt tried other games but intend to try that too,
    would appreciate any help on this....i'll attach the Cpu-z log..here
                                                                             thanks  Deep----------------------

  • Dual DDR Problem

    ok i got 1gb oc system dual ddr 400 ram the other day installed it pc started up fine went to play a game and middle of the game it exited to the desktop. I thought it may be the game had a error or something so i uninstalled it and tried to reinstall it to get crc errors when i do. I was just wondering if this is a incompatibility issue or what. i emailed OCsystem about it also thinking it maybe badram or something but i have not a clue.
    ram im trying to use
    OCSystem x2 1GB TRUE PC3200 DDR400 CAS 2 Match Pair Dual Channel Kit
    System installed in
    MSI K7N2 Delta-Ilsr
    3200 amd xp
    Asus GeforceFX5600 128mb
    120GB Seagate Barricuda SATA HDD
    WindowsXP
    550Watt PSU

    thanks Raven_ i will try that and the psu brand is okia
    Deathstalker: yea i set my fsb cpu ratio to that.
    i talked to a OCSYSTEM tech last night which i need to get ahold of again cause the last one i talked to had not a clue what he was doing cause he told me to goto the memory timing section in my bios and i said "what in the pc health status scetion" he immediatly said no then about a minute later said yes
    here is the site and the exact ram i purchased if itll help
    http://www.ocsystem.com/ocx21gbpcddm.html
    I only whish i knew of anyone else who ever used OCSystem memory and what there results were. scince on any memory test page i found dont list it, but i dont know if its not listed cause its not a major name brand or what. figured from the product page it would work fine with my mobo quote from page: "OCSystem 2x Dual Channel DDR kit with enhanced SPD to maximumize performance for the latest Intel Springdale (865PE), Canterwood (875P) and nVidia nForece2 chipset." well im about to run that memtest86.

  • 128bit Dual DDR mode (msi 6373)

    Hello!
    I currently have only one 256mb pc2100 ram in my nforce.
    I am thinking of buying another 256mb so i can use dual ddr mode on my nforce.
    How much will the performance increase be using 2 256mb dimms?
    I cant get another identical ram dimm to the one i currently use, will it be worth it buying 2 identcal ram dimms?
    Thanks to all who reply, Hope xmas went well.
    Happy new year!

    Try buying one more DIMM as close to the specs of the one you have as you can get. If that doesnt work, get another one of the new ones. Since you are using onboard video dual ddr mode will definitely help. You'll get enough bandwidth that your video circuit and your CPU will be able to comfortably co-exist at top speed.

  • DDR Question

    I have a KT4VL board I installed last weekend with an Athlon XP 2100+ and 256mb DDR PC2700.
    In the bios, which I had to update with the 1.7 version due to numerous errors and problems, I am not sure how to setup the BIOS for the PC2700 Ram (or even if there are any settings I need to change).  
    I read through the manual and the BIOS information, but I can't really tell if there is a setting to set to the right clock speed for the RAM.  
    I'm sorry if this is too basic of a question for this board, but I'm doing my first experimentation with DDR (I've only used PC100 and PC133 SDRAM before this).  Thanks.

    It's all auto detect by BIOS. Disable the BIOS startup screen in BIOS and you'll get info from your BIOS while it start detecting components and hardwares installwithin the system.
    If it says Dual Channel or Linear Dual Channel, means Dual Channel is activated.

  • New to Solaris - dual boot question

    I have been using OpenSolaris on my ThinkPad T400s, dual booting with Windows 7. I want to give Solaris 10 a try. I've had it running in Virtual Box under OS X for a while, and I think I'm comfortable enough to try it out on my ThinkPad. Here is my question: will the Solaris Interactive installer let me install Solaris 10 in my existing OpenSolaris partition? And if it does, will it modify the bootloader so that I can still dual boot with Windows 7? I dont want to have to destroy partitions and re-install Windows. Once its on my hard drive, I can add myself as a user, install the Intel 5300 wireless driver, etc... Anyone have any other issues with Solaris 10 on a T400s?

    Okay, well as usually happens, when I resort to help I end up solving my own problem.
    In this case however, I still don't have a good grasp of what is going on.
    I deleted the partition table with sgdisk --zap-all /dev/sda and then used gdisk to recreate it, specifically setting the code for /dev/sda1 to ef00.
    I then reformatted the FAT partition, leaving the other one alone. After mounting /dev/sda1 to /boot and reinstalling linux and grub, I ran:
    grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=$esp --bootloader-id=arch_grub --recheck
    as described in the wiki, and
    grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    And it worked, including automatically detecting Windows on the other drive. Not sure what went wrong the first time but I'm glad to get it working.

  • SIlly NTSC monitor question

    This may be a silly question but,
    When viewing footage on an NTSC monitor, my footage looks quite different than it does in FCP on the computer screen. If I do color correction just based on the NTSC monitor for DVD output, will that DVD look the same once played on a regular DVD/TV and played on a computer's DVD player?
    I ask because when I'm viewing footage on my NTSC monitor, it looks way different on my computer screen and I want my DVDs to look good whether they are played on a regular TV dor though a computer's DVD player.
    Thanks

    Now you've done it-- opened a whole can o' worms. Lots to consider:
    Is your monitor truly a monitor, properly calibrated and set up? Will you be looking at the dvd on the same monitor? Are all the sets to be used for playback set up the same?
    The idea of a properly calibrated monitor is that your show should look the same on your monitor as on any other properly calibrated monitor. But that's as far as it goes. There's no accounting for anyone else's tv set. Often manufacturers paint them "hot" and then people crank them even more to overcome less than ideal viewing conditions. So you're doubly hosed from the moment is leaves your hands.
    The best you can do is create a show that looks good on a properly set up system and hope for the best.
    But don't just rely on the monitor-- learn and use the scopes too.
    And then there is the current manufacturers situation with monitors themselves. The industry is in a mess right now, transitioning to lcd-- none of which look really good. I hope Zebulon chimes in here-- a professional engineer who will tell you horror stories if he's in the mood.
    And back to your original concern, do not trust your computer monitor in FCP for accurate color or much of anything else except your edits.

  • Win XP/Win 7 dual boot question and

    My replacement motherboard for my crapped out Dell one that was a replacement, crapped out the other week and it was tested with a new power supply to no avail. it was also tested in a shortcut, (connecting the two wires directly, the two that "short out" that turns on the power) and that didnt work either.. (something like that)
    My options are:
    buy another replacment motherboard and hope it stays working longer than the six months the other did
    Buy a new computer and use my old hard drive
    thus arising this question:
    since the new computer will have Windows 7 on it, can I use that as a slave drive and use my primary drive (not going to loose my data and stuff) I have the primary drive as XP but the new one will use 7, when I put in the win 7 drive as a slave drive, will it boot to 7 or XP and would I have the option to dual boot, even if they are seperate drives..
    I think I am writing it a confusing way but I hope you can understand what I am getting at....
    Simply put--
    I have XP drive
    I buy new computer it has Win 7 drive
    Xp drive becomes master, win 7 becomes slave
    Will XP boot or Win 7 boot when its set as the slave drive? what about XP/7 dual boot? they are on seperate drives, will it let me dual boot?
    I want my XP drive to boot.
    I hope you can understand that..
    If I can, I would like to reformat the win7 drive and just use that for storage. is that possioble?
    Ethan
    I just want some help or even an opinion, is that so hard to ask for?

    Okay I read through your post a few times and I am still a bit confused about what your setup looks like. I am going to assume you bought a new computer with Windows 7 on it thus you DID NOT replace the motherboard on the old one. With that assumption, then your answer would be no, only Windows 7 would boot (and it might have some problems if you have it set as the slave drive). Windows XP from your old hard drive would not boot because simply put, the BIOS will not detect a proper boot.ini file and the hardware configuration (partitions and/or disk types) does not match up.
    If you want to set up a dual boot, you would have to install the secondary hard drive (or partition the primary one) and perform a destructive OS restore on it AND find the drivers for it (if the manufacturer of the computer even supports it). When I used to work for the Geek Squad, numerous clients asked about this and the general consensus was that the Geek Squad strongly opposed it because of the drivers. Being that XP and 7 are a generation apart, the chances of the manufacturer of the computer or motherboard releasing drivers for both was unlikely. Sometimes the client would opt to have it done anyway but my former Precinct would always warn them that some features may not work correctly.
    If you want Windows XP and Windows 7, I suggest the XP Mode that Windows Pro and Ultimate offers. You literally run Windows XP inside a window of Windows 7.
    I DO NOT work for Best Buy. Whatever I post are just educated guesses or common sense.

  • Mac and Windows with dual monitors Question

    I use a Intel MacPro running Tiger with latest updates in my church. We use the Mac and Keynote 2.0.2 to present PowerPoint slides on the big screen (dual outputs). Everything was going well until the pastors upgraded to new computers running Vista and Office 2007. Now neither pastor's files will load into Keynote. It comes up with an error. The pastors have saved their files from PP as 2003 PPT files, and they still will not open. Error - unable to open file type. The one pastor went back to XP (dumped Vista) but still used the Office 2007 program and saved as PP2003, but the error still appears.
    FYI - I noticed that Office 2007 saves with a file with the extension of .pptx instead of the .ppt. Checking the file they gave me shows that it is indead a .ppt file and not .pptx file. It makes no difference.
    I believe it is an Office 2007 problem I'm dealing with. I have taken the .ppt file and loaded it onto the PC running PP 2003 and it loads fine, except for some format problems. I then resave it with a different name and tried to load that file (hoping it was converted) , with the same error showing. The problem is transfered with the file. Other files created with the PP 2003 program load fine into Keynote, so it has to be the Office2007 doing something.
    So the questions are, is there an easy fix and still use the Keynote program, OR does Keynote 3 take care of this problem in the upgrade, OR should I install Win XP home or Pro and use parallels (which I have)? Would WinXP Home be enough to support the dual outputs and be fast enough? I am familiar with XP Pro not Home.
    Any information you may have, could be a help. I need this resolved soon. I hate having to bring in the old Windows PC, after enjoying the quality of the Mac.

    Thanks David - glad to here the Mini supports dual monitors, and you're not having any streaming issues. Did you have any special settings, like "no hardware acceleration"? Are you streaming HD content?
    If it supports dual monitors, then I would think the iPad could be used as a second display and input device - the demos I've seen with Air Display (from Avatron Software") would accomplish what I'm looking for. Here is a demo at http://www.vimeo.com/16950420 showing the iPad working with a Windows machine, but I've seen them working with Macs as well.
    Thanks again
