Hi all,
I have recently purchased a Asus p8b-x motherboard from ebay. Works perfectly however i am having troubles when it comes to the ram within the board. Alongside purchasing the motherboard i also purchased two sticks of Kingston unbuffred ecc RAM both the same model and each containing 8GB. However i have tried to boot the machine with both sticks of ram and i am receiving error codes of 4 beeps. I researched and found that this may be due to incompatible memory. However when i try to boot the machine with a single stick within it it posts and boots into VMWare without issue. Im curious to know if anyone may have any suggestions on to why i may be getting the error codes or why it will not post with both sticks in the machine.
Thanks,
Josh
