Guest DimiOrla Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Hay averyone, My problem is when memory remap is enabled in the bios windows keeps rebooting just before the win logo. With remap off I can use only 2.7GB I have an asus P5B-VM board with Kingston 5GB (2*2 & 2*512)dual memory. Last bios and windows updates WIN xp pro sp2 64bit. Any ideas? Thank in advance Dimitris.
Guest Charlie Russel - MVP Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Re: memory remap 1.) Check for updated BIOS from Asus. 2.) Try it with only 4GB - could be a memory compatibility issue 3.) Disable autoreboot so you can see what error message is thrown. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "DimiOrla" <DimiOrla@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:00F5884A-FC05-4893-8A3B-42B995BCA18E@microsoft.com... > Hay averyone, > My problem is when memory remap is enabled in the bios windows keeps > rebooting just before the win logo.

Guest Bobby Johnson Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Re: memory remap Ensure you are using Qualified Vendor List (QVL) memory and ensure that all 4 sticks are of the same manufacture and specs. Matched the memory is usually very critical for the system to be capable of functioning properly. Also, contact Asus Tech Support or go to their Support Forums. You have a hardware problem that you must resolve before you can worry about Windows working!

Guest Carlos Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Re: memory remap ASUS forum for this board might also be useful. http://vip.asus.com/forum/topic.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=P5B-VM&board_id=1 There are some threads related to > 4GB memory.
