I trying to run with 4 1GB memory sticks. I have version 1 of the ABIT PRO board with bios ID:14. The system boots and runs fine with two sticks of either Corsair CM2X1024-6400C4 G or with two sticks of Crucial Ballistic BL2KIT12864AA804 - at the called for 2.1v (or 2.2v), but when I install all 4 sticks I get a failure on the optional extended memory test in the boot process. (The memory listing part of my Signature isn't correct.) I'm using a E6750 processor at only 333MHz for now, and with the 1:1 multiplier, the memory is only running at 666MHz, so I'm not even pushing it beyond stock.
Is running different brands of memory the problem? Or are these boards have a problem with 4 sticks of memory?
If I need to buy additional memory of the same type that I have, would there be a preference for one or the other?
I'm running Vista Home Premium in the 64-bit flavor.
