DFI SLI-DR mobo busted?

"Out of physical memory," is all I can glean before the machine reboots. I don't think it's the ram, because it works fine in other machines. It's not the hard drive either, because I have ran the computer on more than one hd(one hd has winxphome, the other has winxppro). I've had these problems ever since I received the mobo, but recently it has gotten a lot worse. I have the updated bios installed, and I don't know what else to do. RMA?
 
Are you positive that this memory is compatible with this motherboard ? Is this memory that you brought over from another system and used in this one ?

If so, call or e-mail the motherboard manufacturer and see what memory is compatible with your motherboard. Or you could go to Kingston.com and use their memory search feature to see exactly what type of memory your motherboard needs.

 
Sounds like you don't have enough memory and the drive with your page file is full.

Do you know which drive you have your page file on? Do you know how much free space that drive has?

What are you doing with this computer? When does it crash?

Have you tried making the page file bigger? If there is not enough free space to do so you may have to delete some files on that drive.

If you want to see a small boost in performance put your page file on a separate drive than your os and programs. Not a separate partition, but a separate drive. That drive should also be on a separate IDE channel. This means they can both concurrently access each other.

1. I have a gigabyte of memory (ocz performance), and the drive has 45 gigabytes of space open.

2. It's primarily my recreational rig. It tends to crash when I first boot it up. I can always tell when it's going to crash because my taskbar does not respond for about 15 seconds, then all the desktop icons reload, and it crashes.
When it does manage to fully load windows, it tends to crash when I use my dial-up internet service. It will sometimes crash when I hit connect, sometimes when I hit disconnect (or not at all). Either way, I get the same blue screen and it reboots.
One other thing. When it crashes as it's loading the windows desktop, it will keep crashing and rebooting until I either change a boot device (weird) or reset CMOS.

3. I enlarged the page file, but it hasn't helped 🙁
 
What kind of power supply do you have? Do you have all 4 power connections plugged in (24-pin, ATX 12V, 4-pin molex,
and floppy)?
