Foxconn N15235, 4gb installed(in cmos regocnized) 2,75 in Windows 7 64-Bit

[cm0scm0s]

Hello, I just made a built for my girlfriend after Asus destroyed my p5b Mobo with a corrupt bios flash file.

This mobo only has 2dimm slots but it supports 4 gb this is also recognized in the bios and in windows as 4bg , But only 2,75 is usable.

This bios does not have a memory remap function , Nor is my msconfig boot configured so it would lock up any ram.

I am searching desperatly for an awnser that could resolve my issue,

I'm looking for an awnser that could help me with this bios. is there perhaps another function wich is not named memory remap that could have the same function?

My specs are

e6600 on foxconn n15235
gt440
2x ddr2 ram 2gb pc2-6400 (kingston &trancend memory)

Anyhelp is welcome

go to msconfig>boot>advanced options>check the maxmemory checkbox , restart and see if it helped

 

[h3sham]

if it didnt work,try swaping the memories around ,if it didn work re-seat the CPU,install a single module once at a time and add the rest modules

As stated in my orignal post, changing the Msconfig boot lockup of memory is not enabled, there is no limit set.

I should have stated that i switched my cpu with an e6400 and e6600 multiple times switched my ram ( wich made my pc not start up)

one would speculate about broken ram or broken slot, but i have checked it thurraly and the ram is OK i tested it on another motherboard, and im sure the second slot is just having a conflict with the switch, because if it were faulty or defect the bios and windows and cpu-z would not recognize it but it does,

i am simply a noob @ Foxconn motherboards, im sort of looking for some feedback about that bios.

But thank you for the quick response !

any onboard cards?

 

[h3sham]

i cant find the board anywhere but according to a friend of mine the board has onboard VGA and the chipset doesnt support memory mapping so if hes right you are stuck with low memory ,but to make sure check the resources monitor on your windows and see what it reports about the ram , if hes right your only option is getting another board

 

[cm0scm0s]

**** well ill be a monkeys uncle,

this would be incredably tiresome.

i saw some settings in the bios concerning the vga something .hmm

is there no way on earth i could fix this?
i looked for a way to turn it off but it also says there only 128 mb going to the vga.

i cant believe this mobo is a ghost , no search engine or foxconn website will come up with any results..

if anyone else has a magic idea id be glad to try

 

[h3sham]

i tried to look for a way to turn the onboard vga off apparantly theres no way...ppl been complaining about it , heres where i found it

[cm0scm0s]

tnx ive seen that also, but never say never..

i meen 1,25 gb is kinda alot for a crappy 128 mb onboard vga

tnx very much for helping me look,

It is not,


Mine has a IDE ( white )connecter just on the bottom underneath the last PCI slot,


and a Blue one on the right just behind the Main power connector.

Its the motherboard of the flying dutchman ( joke )

 

[h3sham]

lol good one , and its kind of weird i cant find it on their website

 

[cm0scm0s]

and 4 blue sata's next to that on the bottom. (right)

This is it

 

[cm0scm0s]

There is a VGA in and VGA out port on the back , does anyone want pictures of the bios ? im a desperate man.,.

 

[h3sham]

underneath that dedicated card....is there a pci-e?

 

[h3sham]

above the battery

best matches i could find...
also take a look between the mobo heatsink and the DIMMs ,i think the model should be there

[cm0scm0s]

yes under my pci-e card is a mini pci/e

it looks exactly like the 2 pictures u sent me , whats the diff?

usb 2.0?

i know my mobo has that at least

 

[cm0scm0s]

but im pretty sure its one of those 2 , the only diffrence i see is Ide ata 100 / 133

are those mobo's gonna keep me at 2,75 ? or can devine intervention change my sad fate

 

[h3sham]

the 2.0 supports future generation and supports less ram clocks , well at least thats what i could get from it

 

[h3sham]

try disabling shared memory and see if it helps

 

[cm0scm0s]

im going to try the set to agp ? , What? these guys are talking about agp cards? that wont go into my pcie ... , im asuming just the bios settings ?

 

[cm0scm0s]

ill send u picture from my bios , it does not have easy words like shared memory or memory remap, its kinda tricky to guess what they all meen.. brb taking pictures

 

[h3sham]

not the agp part i meant the part where they disabled memory sharing...maybe thats the way to fix it
