    No POST if more than 1 stick of ram

     
    My mobo will not do a POST if i insert more than 1 stick of RAM. I just got the mobo today (XFX 750i SLI) and have been having this problem all day.

    Any ideas?

    I figured it out. When I pulled out the RAM from my old mobo to my new one, 3 of the gold-plated connectors on the 1 RAM moduel got shaved off. That one stick was throwing off my whole motherboard.

    Installed the 3 working ones and all is good. Now Ill just have to see about getting a new stick for the broken one.
