Yeah I have been seeing a lot of similar stories with the mobo. I really dont want to send it back, but if I have to...

I put them in directly from the packaging when it arrived from NewEgg. Tested both sticks so I know it has to be a Mobo problem. Also, I didn't mix up the slots, though I tried both. Would this have anything to do with voltage?

I had a similar problem where Bonjour was causing massive performance issues. Try going to your task manager>processes and kill Bonjour.exe (I think that's what its called). A complete removal (registry) of iTunes, and subsequent clean install of the new version might do the trick?

Hi all, Title says it all. I put in two ADATA 4GB DDR3 1600 sticks and everything started up fine. Then the MemOK light continued and the display was unresponsive. Also the fan to my GPU stopped. But everything works fine when I leave in 1 stick. Any ideas? Thanks!

Thank you so much for your help. I feel like it would just be easier to return the AMD processor and just buy a LGA 775 socket Intel CPU. Such as this? Newegg.com - Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 Yorkfield 2.66GHz 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 95W Quad-Core Processor BX80580Q8400 Otherwise I would need DDR3...

So if I was to purchase (x2) 4GB of DDR3, wouldn't I need a 64 bit version of Windows 7 to run more than 4GB of RAM? Newegg.com - Kingston 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model KVR1333D3N9K2/8G

Hi all, I haven't upgraded my CPU since I first built my PC about 5 years ago. While my ASUS P5N-D motherboard has been able to handle modest GPU upgrades (GTX 260), it doesn't seem as though my new processor (see link) I got from NewEgg wants to fit. Newegg.com - AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black...

Hey thanks a lot. That was the problem! Set to Russian for some unknown reason haha.

Thanks for the reply. I checked that and it all seems normal. Problem still persists with a restart.

Hi there Whenever I go to search for a file from my taskbar, the text I type appears in russian characters. I have no idea how this happened, and it only occurs in search. Any ideas?
