Solve : Max Ram + Video Card Causing Problems.? |
|
Answer» OK so I have two 1gb sticks of ram both are Kingston and new without errors. My motheboard supports up to 2gb ram. 2Gb of ram runs fine without a video CARD installed. I have tried 2 different Nvidia cards and have gotten the same problem when I use 2Gb ram. Previous card was 256k and my present is NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT 128k ram. I have updated all drivers. Played with Bios but I am noob with that. With the 2Gb of ram installed and GPU I get BSOD ram error msg. What I guess is the ram on the GPU is PUTTING me over the limit or something. Any suggestions or solutions are greatly appriciated thanks. ::Edit:: MEANT to post system stats.

Yes all works fine with less ram. Ok I talked to a shop and he confirmed some computers log the GPU as ram and thought he never saw a BSOD there were similar errors. Fixed it by switching to 1.5gb ram. Thanks all. |
