Jim,
I tried running 2 gig at PC Pitstop then Ran the same test with 4 gig and the results came back the same .. the scores were identical. So I doubt it's hurting to run all 4 gig. I'm still working on it. Will let ya know if I come across anything.
Here's a question" If we are...
Now we are cookin.. With the built in AMD Antivirus stuff and running a secure system as I do with firewalls ect. I'm not concerened about the code issue at all. I also do allot of backups.
But I've tried a bunch of switches in the boot.ini and haven't had any luck...
Not a answer just a alternative..
Common you guy's .. This can't be that tough. If Windows XP Pro SP1 recognizes the full 4 gig and SP2 disables it .. There must be a way to undo the specific patch that causes this without disabling ALL of the SP2 patches.....
The ram worked flawlessly at 2 gig. OCZ is supposed to be one of the best. And when I built the system It was the best performer and if I remeber correctly the only vendor I could find with 1 gig matched dual channel specs. Some info I got at DFI was becasue it was 2 sided I wouldn't be able to...
Thansk for the links. I've tried all the switches also and no go . /pae and /3gb and in different orders and bty themselves .. no luck. I do have those sites bookmarked and keep refering back to them.
My Motherboard supports 4 gig dual channel. I even have the OCZ guy's trying to help me...
It shows up correctly with SP1 as soon as SP2 is applyed is when it is not recognised. Tried the swapfile trick abd shut it off and no differance. WHen I run PC pitstop all the scores are the same even if I onlu use 2 gig vs. 4 gig.
Very Strange
So What I was thinkin is maybe I can setup a...
I'm not really into evaluation software and don't have the time right now to rebuild my operating system. Plus I think the 64 bit probably still has some issues that need to be worked out.
But thanks for the info.
I tried running PCPitstop with 3 different configs.
1) 2 gig ram
2) 4 gig ram
3) Advanced BIOS feature turned off so the post test only sees 3.4gig
And guess what.
All the scores are exactly the same on memory and system performance
I've tried all the switches /pae /3gb .... I've...
For Weeks I've been dealing with the ram and motherboard manufacture and I'm getting now where. Is there someone online that may have a clue as to what is going on?
Thanks

Post test shows 4 gig and so does CPUZ .. My Computer only see's 3 gig and PC pitstop see's 4 gig but say's windows is only using 3 gig. I believe thats enabled but will look again.. Thanks

I'm callin out the big guns thats why all the links.. Sorry .. I'm posting everywhere till I get a answer then do what I must.
in order to get it to see the 4 gig dual channel I had to flash the BIOS. I even tried a beta BIOS upgrade from OCZ and same results.
thanks for your time.
Well it looks like my best bet is to reinstall windows at this point.
Is there a step by step instructions for how I should go about this?
I've upgraded my sig to show what I'm working with.
Thanks

P.S. I can't get DFI Street to load or the pdf HERE
I am having issues with adding another 2 gig of OCZ to my DFI Ultra D
Can anyone give me some suggestions? I was on the phone with OCZ almost all day and they are so helpful but because the manual for the DFI sucks so bad it's hard to figure out whats going on...
I have 2 of these http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=GN210-BLK
One of the base units you install in the computer gave out. The 2 swap cages I have full 1 120gb and 1 160gb hd. I backup to them weekly then swap and put the unused one in a safe.

I had one of these in Febuary .. actually went thru 3 of them before I had to fight to get my money back from ZipZoom. They made ME pay for the shipping on all of them.
Nothing but dead pixels (lots) .. and other issues..
They did get the best reviews then also..

I admit .. I'm lazy. I'd like to be able to just hit the delete key when it's playing a song (in random) that I don't want.
Thanks Again
Really.. I have no idea if they do or not but sure would like to give it a try.
Can you suggest a small, nonivasive, freeware app that will do this for me?
Thanks a Ton
I just ripped 300 CD's to my hard drive. Since I didn't want a bunch of folders I put all MP3's in one folder. I used Media Player 10.

Short on time so I thought I'd fish for ideas here. I just installed Media Player 10 and so far so good.
