Hello,
I have recently purchased a bare-bones kit including the following:
Gigabyte H55M-S2H mobo
OCZ DDR3 PC3-10666 2x2GB RAM
The reason I only include those two is that I kept getting a continuous short beeping error (which according to the manual means Power Supply error, even though I'm pretty darn sure it's all connected correctly). I tried monkeying around with what might be the problem, and the ONLY thing that made the error go away is if I removed the RAM chip closest to the processor...removing the other one didn't do it. Now of course this happened at midnight when I didn't have the thing hooked up to my monitor, and I went to bed feeling that I'd fixed it, but what does this mean? I heard the "single beep of goodness" with that one RAM out, so I'm assuming I'll be able to boot the system to my new operating system, but is it a bad RAM? They're identical and came in the same package. Do I need to do a BIOS flash upgrade? Seems scary!
