I recently bought and upgraded my system's memory from 2GB to 4GB. The system had one set of CORSAIR DDR2 800 2GB dual channel TWIN2X2048-6400C4 memory sticks installed and everything worked fine. I then bought another set of the same memory and installed it (making it 4 x 1GB) However, when I turned the computer back on, windows detected 3.4 GB of memory, as expected, but could not detect either GB LAN ports on the motherboard, and thus I lost internet. I removed the RAM back to the original 2 GB and like magic the LAN ports and internet came back. So how does upgrading the memory cause me to loose internet?
My system is:
MB: M2N SLI Deluxe
OS: XP Pro SP3 32-bit
RAM: 2 x CORSAIR DDR2 800 2GB dual channel TWIN2X2048-6400C4
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+
