Excellent, rep givenHello,
Are you using Memtest86+ as recommended by CarlTR6 on Post #6?
When having issues it is best to return the BIOS to default settings.
Did you have the settings at default the first time you started the computer?
After you re-set the BIOS to default, what are the RAM timings (first four) and DRAM voltage settings?
You should D/L your motherboard manual, Asus M4N78 PRO here.
Read the section on your CPU and Memory.
From the website:
From manual:Memory 4 x DIMM, Max. 16 GB, DDR2 1200(O.C.)/1066*/800/667 ECC,Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory
Dual Channel memory architecture
*Due to AMD CPU limitation, DDR2 1066 is supported by AM2+/AM3 CPU for one DIMM per channel only. Refer to ASUSTeK Computer for the memory QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists).
This will need to be checked.This motherboard does not support DIMMs made up of 256 megabit (Mb) chips or less.
Your RAM is on the recommended list, at 5-5-5-15 and 2.1v.
From your manual:
Due to AM3/AM2+ CPU limitations, only one DDR2 1066 Dimm is supported per channel.Confirm which slots your RAM is currently located.Supports one pair of modules inserted into eithor the blue slots or the black slots as one pair of Dual-channel memory configuration
Read the BIOS section in your manual, the CPU and RAM settings are in the AI Tweaker Menu section 2.4.
Let us know the:
CPU voltage
CPU/NB voltage
DRAM voltage
Can you D/L CPUZ?
Open CPUZ and take a screen shot of the CPU, Mainboard, Memory and SPD tabs, use the Snipping tool, Start button> All Programs> Accessories> Snipping Tool.
Save to a convenient place.
Then post using this method.
