• CPU: Intel i5 2500K (stock now, but OC'd to 4.4GHz)
• Cooler: EVGA Superclock w/ Noctua NF-F12 PWM
• Mobo: EVGA Z68 FTW, R22 BIOS
• RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 MHz
• GFX: EVGA GTX 670 FTW
• Sound: Onboard
• HDD: 3TB Seagate
• SSD: 60GB Corsair Force 3
• OS: Windows 8 Pro x64

All of a sudden when I restarted my computer last night, I noticed I was getting "Low memory" popups when playing Skyrim. I checked performance in task manager and it said only 8GB of RAM was usable.

Checked in system properties and indeed it said 8.00GB. Checked BIOS, RAM was running in XMP Profile 1, but only at 1333 speed and only 8GB was detected.

Pulled all 4 sticks out and tested EACH stick individually in each DIMM slot - everything OK. Tested in 4 different pairs in each set of slots - OK. As soon as I put all 4 sticks in, back to square one - only 8 GB detected.

Pulled all sticks out and put into a completely different system... all 16GB detected in BIOS and in Windows.
I've reset my CMOS and tried setting manual timings/speeds but I cannot post when I do that. Only when XMP Profile 1 is on will it work.

Any ideas? ]]> Operating Systems Krysis http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175773-8GB-RAM-detected-out-of-16GB http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175727-Need-help-installing-Windows-7-64-on-MSI-motherboard&goto=newpost Mon, 17 Jun 2013 15:02:00 GMT I have two drives setup for raid.

When I boot through the UEFI menu and choose my flash drive with windows 7, it will load the windows installer. Once I get into the installer it will say that windows cannot be installed to this disk. I have tried several raid drivers and same message. This is on a amd board if that matters with the A10 processor. ]]> Operating Systems syllinx http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175727-Need-help-installing-Windows-7-64-on-MSI-motherboard http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175695-iOS-7-Thoughts&goto=newpost Sat, 15 Jun 2013 19:51:28 GMT http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/ Just wondering what you guys thoughts are on iOS 7, especially... http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7/

Just wondering what you guys thoughts are on iOS 7, especially from those like myself that will be using an iPhone when this eventually arrives in fall.

To me it seems to be decent enough. I like the proper multitasking and the fluid animations. The easy 'Control Center' access seems useful, and built-in flashlight. A lot of the features Android users have already enjoyed for years... oh well better late than never, right?

Sweet gimmicks like the motion wallpaper depending on the angle you have your phone are interesting but I can see it as a battery guzzler.

The beta is out already and I was tempted to try but I think I'll wait it out till fall release... ]]> Operating Systems terrannova http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175695-iOS-7-Thoughts http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175560-Why-is-Windows-Update-so-crap-at-applying-display-driver-updates&goto=newpost Tue, 11 Jun 2013 09:23:21 GMT Right, a little why ago I got a notification that there was an update available through Windows... Right, a little why ago I got a notification that there was an update available through Windows Update, so I told it to download and install it. However, this completely mucked up my system and I had to spend time putting it back the way it was before with the original drivers. This isn't the first time this has happened, it happened on a previous PC too. This is so annoying, and now WU keeps bugging me to install this "update" which doesn't actually work! ]]> Operating Systems Bungle http://community.futuremark.com/forum/showthread.php?175560-Why-is-Windows-Update-so-crap-at-applying-display-driver-updates
