Got my new parts a couple of days ago (i7 930, ASUS P6T SE, 6GB Patriot Viper, TX850). Everything seemed to work fine.
Then today while in the BIOS I noticed that it was reporting only 4088MB of memory. Windows also shows only 4gb. CPU-Z however detects all three 2GB modules.
I have tried removing and putting back all the modules, as well as switching them around and still no change.. I even remounted the CPU heatsink (not tightening it as much this time) as it has been said to solve such an issue, but that didn't work either..
Any ideas? Has this happened to anyone else?
