ZH77A-G43 Will only boot with 2 sticks

Trying to build a linux backup server, but cannot get to even boot with 2 sticks.
System powers up, fans spin. After about 10 seconds power-cycles and then continues
to repeat in a loop.
Have read through various similar posts.
So far have tested all sticks test fine when tested individually with memtest86
Have removed, inspected CPU and mobo for bent pins; none visible to the naked eye.
Is there anything I am missing to try and resolve this issue?
------Build is below ---------   
MSI ZH77A-G43 LGA 1155
CORSAIR CX600M 600W
ZALMAN CNPS9500A-LED 92mm
ASUS Black SATA DVD-ROM Drive Model ...
Seagate Barracuda STBD2000101 2TB 7200 RPM

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB)
Crucial M4 CT128M4SSD2 2.5" 128GB
Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz

Ok I can get it to go as far as 2 sticks; not in the expected slots either. Board identifies these as slot 1 and 2.
In OC genie it shows two. The sticks are labeled CL 9 9 9 24.
The memory page shows the following timings:
Cycle 1.5ns
tcl     13.125ns
tRCD 13.125ns
tRP    13.125ns
tRAS  36ns

tWR   15ns
tWTR 7.5ns
tRRD 6.0ns
tRTP 7.5ns
tFAW 30.0ns
tRC 49.125ns
What exactly am I looking to adjust here (or am I looking in the wrong place)?

  • System will only boot with 1 x DDR DIMM stick!

    Hi guys,
    Recently upgraded to a K8T Neo (VIA K8T800) however when I try and run the system with 2 x DIMM's (TMC 512MB PC3200) it doesn't boot and I just get audio beeps.  I have tried all the DIMM sockets and it still does the same thing.  It does work though with just 1 x DIMM.  Both DIMM's are functional.  
    Sounds like it's not compatible.  Is there a BIOS setting I can change?

    Thanks for the replies,
    Apologies, I am actually running a 300w PSU (13A at +12v) which is still below acceptable and could be causing the problems.  I have an Antec TRUE 430w PSU on it's way I just thought I would install the new board + CPU to see if it all worked.  
    Both DIMM's are ok.  The limiting idea didn't work (went as a low as DDR266).  Didn't fancy playing with the voltage as the power supply is already under pressure!  Also had tried the socket combo's prior to posting.  
    The audio warning with both DIMM's installed is three long beeps.  Sounds like it is not even registering as having any RAM at all?  If I put my old RAM in (2 x 256MB PC2100) the system boots.  These require less power I take it?
    Main concern really is even with more power will these 2 x TMC 512 PC3200's work?  I don't even see TMC in the compatiblity table?  Need to know so I can get this RAM swapped!
    Cheers,

  • Will only boot to a circle with a slash

    MacBook Pro will only boot to the circle with a slash symbol. I have tried all the turn on hold C, X, Option key suggestions and have tried the clearing ideas (hold cntl, commmd, p, r). Have put the system disk in to boot from that, now I cannot get the disk out.
    Any suggestions out there?

    Your computer is not recognizing your hard drive. Plug a mouse in and hold the mouse key down when booting. The disc should eject. Next, make sure the disc is real clean with no finger prints or scratches on it. Then try booting from it again (by holding the "C" key down) when booting. See if your Disk Utility sees the drive and run that. If it does not, or the unit will not boot from the install disc, then you have a serious problem--possibly logic board-related. You could also try running DiskWarrior and see if that will boot and repair the drive.

    Solved!

    What lead_org is referring to is commonly known as "re-balling" which involves unsoldering the Southbridge chip from the planar, replacing all (6-700) solder balls with new ones and then re-attaching it under heat/pressure.

  • My macbook pro will only boot in safe mode

    Hey,
    I have a macbook pro 15-inch, Early 2011 running osx 10.9.4. I have a SSD hard drive that i installed myself a year ago and hasn't shown any defects. Its a 120 gb OCZ-AGILITY3.
    My problem:
    My macbook will only boot in safe mode nowadays. I have done a complete erasion of my hard drive and installed osx mavericks twice already. After the installation the computer will safely go to the desktop. But if i then do a reboot it won't get further than after the first apple logo, sometime the turning wheel will pop up, before turning off and trying again. i have tried resetting PRAM, I have tried resetting SMC, i have tried avoiding SMC (with big fan rate), but all with no success.
    I have done a complete hardware test (the longer one) and it showed "no troubles found".
    My guess is that the problem is with the battery. My computer won't run anymore without the adapter, when i pull the adapter out it either stays on for a while before just turning off. Without having it plugged in it won't start. Is it possible that during normal start up there is some kind of communication with the battery that can cause this?
    I ran a diagnostic shown in this thread (Will only boot in safe mode) and included it in this post.
    Hope someone can help me out.
    Thanks,
    Bram

    Actually it sometimes gets a little further, the display will dim and the pointer will appear and then whoop it will turn off. if i do a verbose start up, it will finish all the steps, the white screen will appear and dim and then it will turn off.

  • 24" iMac will only boot in safe mode

    Here is the short version:
    I have a 24" iMac Core 2 2.16 GHZ with Lion installed (has been for a long time).  It will only boot successfully in safe mode.  The AHT Extended tests do not report any problems.  I have reset PRAM and SMC.  Nothing helps.  Normal boot process will get to the point where it switches from the Apple logo with spinning wheel to where it would normally switch the OSX GUI and login screen.  Instead the screen is all white or gray.  The exact same problem happens if I try to boot from an OSX Install DVD or USB and also my DiskWarrior DVD.  Since safe mode works, my guess is that the problem is with the video card and the normal color depth that the Mac boots to.  In Safe Mode it is in reduced colors.
    Since safe mode works, I have all of my data backed up to an external drive.  If I could boot from an install disk, I would have already wiped the disk and done a new install, but I cannot do this!  I am assuming this is a hardware problem and given the age of this iMac I am out of luck.  I ordered a new system last night, but if it is possible to get this one working again, I would like to be able to give it to a relative who could use it.  So if anyone has any ideas, it would be appreciated.
    Just slightly longer version:
    Been using this system since 2007.  Used to use it for work, now it is the home media hub where we sync our iOS devices.  It has had Lion installed for probably a year now and has always worked great.  A few weeks ago, it started locking up whenever my son was playing Minecraft.  I would have to power off the system to get it back.  I assumed it was a Java problem.  I tried fixing disk permissions etc. but nothing solved it.  Anyway, last week I was downloading App updates in iTunes when the system locked up again.  The mouse would move around but I could not Force Quit anything or really do anything.  So I had to power off the system.  That is when the boot problems started.  Since that happened, the system has not come back with a normal boot.
    Thanks for any ideas/help.  If someone thinks this is fixable, I can bring it to my local Apple service dealer.  I do not want to pay them $100 just to have them tell me it cannot be fixed or needs a new logic board or something like that which would not be worth buying.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in safe mode.
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
    The commands may line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
    Step 1
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V).
    find /Sy*/L*/Ex* -type f -name Info.plist -exec sh -c '/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleIdentifier" "$1" 2> /dev/null | egrep -qv "apple|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|CalDigit|HighPoint|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID|stex" && echo ${1%*.kext/*}.kext' {} {} \;
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
    Step 3
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
    Remember, these steps are all copy-and-paste — no typing. Also remember to post the output.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • PowerMac G5 will ONLY boot up when the side panel is removed

    Hi,
    We have a PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5GHZ . This mac will ONLY boot up when the side panel and the clear plastic panel are removed. If the Mac is assembled, the Mac will start and Chime, but thats it. No display and the fans are dead quite. Any Suggestions? Thanks in advance

    Hi, I realised that this problem has ONLY occured AFTER I installed Leopard. I then reformated the hard drive and installed 10.34 ( the OS that came with the G5) and it is as good as gold. I then reformated the hard drive and installed Leopard. After a few minutes the G5 became noisy and unstable. I then reformatted the hard drive AGAIN and reinstalled 10.34 and it stable. How can I install Leopard without the machine behaving erratic? Thanks for any advice in advance

  • Qosmio X305 will only boot in safe mode or when the graphics card disabled

    Hi All
    I am having a very concerning issue with my laptop (Toshiba Qosmio X305). It will only boot in safe mode or if I disable the graphics card.
    Awhile back I upgraded the drivers for the nVidia 9800M GTX from the nVidia website, it worked fine for awhile, but then it started crashing randomly by giving me a full screen of random color then switching off. I fixed this by rolling back to the previous version of the drivers (the drivers that came with the laptop software).
    After that it working perfectly for months but yesterday my machine started crashing and I could not get it to boot correctly.
    I have completely deleted (not just a quick format) both the hard drives that came internally in the laptop and I have installed a clean version (the out of the box option) of the x64 Vista that came with the laptop from the recovery disks I created. After I did the install, it boots fine as only the standard VGA device is used, as soon as I installed the driver off the drivers and applications disk it would not boot correctly:
    Just after the status bar comes up and it is about to show the windows logo, just before login, I get a black screen. I can hear that it is booting fine and I can even log in to windows and by memory make things run, but I can't see anything. I then got the latest drivers, again from the nVidia website and they are not helping at all.
    My system is as follows (nothing has been added, its is just how I got it):
    Vista Ultimate x64
    4.00 GB RAM
    Intel Core 2 Quad
    Like I said previously it is a clean install of the operating system, I have not added any programs, except for installing and then updating the display drivers.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi buddy,
    It seems that this is a typical example, that only pretested display drivers from Toshiba should be used. Why?
    The nVidia drivers are not pretested and they dont have an overheat protection. So for me it sounds like that the nVidia driver has destroyed your graphic card. That means no driver will help you and reinstallation of the whole system too.
    I think the only option is replacing the graphic card. Therefore you should contact an authorized service provider in your country. Here you can search:
    http://www.csd.toshiba.com
    Explain the whole story and then you will see, what the technicians say. If your notebook is under warranty, hopefully this will be covered too. Normally other display drivers you have to install on your own risk
    Good luck! :)

  • My computer will only boot off it's drive in safe mode

    Short Story...
    My computer will only boot in safe mode and in normal mode displays grey apple that turns into a grey cross. Surface scan in techtool pro 4.5.1 passed
    Long Story... (all the issues I've had as they are all back to back and most likely cause by what sloved the previous one).
    When i first got my macbook i already had a 500gb hdd in my macmini running 10.6 (or 10.6.1 I forget) and as soon as a had the macbook running off this drive it would give me one error for each and every movie file that was visible (in an open folder or on the desktop) saying quick look helper had unexpectedly quit. I tried everything and for some reason ended up changing all the permissions on the computer which royally screwed it up. anyway after repairing permissions in disk utility the error messages stopped but shortly after start up it was giving me a couple of dozen error messages saying something about .kext's (if requested i can supply full text of this error message) so i tried reinstalling the OS and since in 10.6 there is no archive and install (without messing around in terminal) i just ran the snow leopard disc which brought me back to 10.6 then I upgraded to 10.6.2 and restarting a couple of times over a day or so. After a few restarts I found the computer wouldn't start (it chimed, loaded up the apple symbol and loading wheel and then after a few minutes replaced the apple symbol with a crossed circle) I tried running the snow leopard disc again and this time not upgrading but after about 3 restarts the same thing happened. now i can only start up in safe boot mode or off my backup drive which still displays a few dozen of the .kext errors at start up. Sorry about the length of this description I would appreciate absolutely any help or ideas.

  • My iMacG5 will only boot to white screen, gray apple and spinning gear. Help?

    My iMacG5 will only boot to white screen, gray apple and spinning gear. Help?
    Also not totally sure if it's an Intel based computer, but that's what I recall. Any way to check, since I can't get to About This Mac window?
    It's running on OSX Leopard 10.5.4
    First symptom = running slowly - then it kind of froze with color wheel spinning - thought a forced shut down would help - help power button til off, then white screen, gray apple and spinning gear.
    Have tried...
    1. Turn off the computer by choosing Shut Down from the Apple menu, or by holding the power button until the computer turns off.
    2. Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
    3. Wait 10 seconds.
    4. Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.
    5. Let go of the power button.
    6. Press the power button once more to start up your iMac.
    Then try booting from your install disc again.
    - No change
    And...
    Booting From An OS X Installer Disc
      1. Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
      2. Restart the computer.
      3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
      4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo

      5. Wait for installer to finish loading.
    - The fan just got louder.
    Thanks for your help.

    You need to do an Erase and Install or an Archive and Install depending on whether the hard drive is OK or needs to be reformatted.
    Start by booting from your Leopard DVD. The rest is just following directions.
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • MBP15 1.83 GHz Will Not Boot With 3GB Upgrade

    I'm trying to increase my MBP's ram to the 3GB limit. This is a 1.83 GHz 15" model.

    512MB (single SODIMM) of PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 memory on 1.83GHz configuration; and 1GB (single SODIMM) on 2.0GHz configuration; two SODIMM slots support up to 2GB
    Crucial Memory says the same.

  • Brand new MBP will only boot to blue screen

    Help!
    Worked fine for about an hour or two and then completely locked up. I had to do a forced shutdown to get it to turn off.. But now it will only boot to this weird blue screen with just a cursor.
    Any ideas?

    Actually, for a brand new machine a clean install is not a bad idea.
    The original disc images are copied in bulk. The tiniest little glitch can cause later problems. It really doesn't add that much time to the initial setup process and you can also discount it as a cause if the problem re-occurs.
    You should not have to do a clean install again.

    If they don't have a Mac version and you must have it, you'll have to install Windows in Boot Camp or similar app.

  • How can I transfer files from a 27" iMac which will only boot in safe mode?

    My late 2009 27" imac is having issues and will only boot in safe mode. I have tried to transfer files to a new Imac using migration assistant but it wont let me. If I try booting the old Imac normally I just get a grey screen, I believe it is the video card failed and am waiting for a fix, but I would like to transfer files before the fix in case something goes wrong and I lose everything.
    Any help would be great

    Hello Myles, likely it is a Hardware problem.
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

    Yes, I've been using it for months. And I can charge other devices with it. (my iPhone) but something weird just happened..... I kept on pluging it in the iPod and sometimes it would start to chàrge then sometimes it won't charge. Charges every time with the iPhone though.
