This might be a stupid question, but according to the manual, the DIMM slots are not color coordinated. It lists Slots A_1 and A_2 as being Channel "A", which are the first Yellow and black DIMM slots.

[black] A_2
[yellow] B_1

I'm still having issues getting the computer to even boot at all with 4 sticks in the machine. I've tried adjusting the timings and memtest still fails.
Would it be worth it to contact ASUS support?
Also, this might be a stupid question, but are the banks split by color? In the manual, it...
The mobo is set to AUTO for all the timing settings. Would it make sense that I would need to manually set timings? The other issue is that it will freeze even when I am in the BIOS, so I don't think I'll be able to make the changes.
I've got a problem trying to run 4GB of RAM on my system. Whenever I pair a set of OCZ and Corsair DDR2 sticks together, the machine freezes randomly and Memtest fails immediately.
I've tested each of the sticks individually and they pass memtest with flying colors. I've made sure that each...

I removed the heat sink and CPU, scraped off and applied new thermal paste - everything is running fine now, 38 degree idle temperature.
The heatsink likely was not seated properly, and some of the thermal paste on the...
Could it be possible that the CPU is not seated correctly? I'm not using any thermal grease, but the pad on the heatsink, i'll try reseating and if not apply thermal grease to it, thanks for the advice!
I sat and watched the BIOS hardware monitor for a few minutes. The CPU temperature was going up and up, I watched it go up to 70 degrees C (abnormal for Core Duo?) and it didn't reboot. If i tried to load up linux or install an OS it would turn off - at this point I have no OS installed on the...

The problem is that the PC shuts down after 3-5 minutes of...
I've seen this happen a few times at work. This error usually means boot.ini is incorrect and pointing to the wrong partition where Windows is installed.
If you can boot to DOS or use a Windows 98 boot disk. It might be a good idea to get a boot.ini from another PC (change its attributes to...
