Assistance Needed with RAM Configuration on Asus P8Z77-V LK Motherboard

Dear Asus Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out for assistance regarding an issue I’m experiencing with my Asus P8Z77-V LK motherboard.

Here are the details of my setup:

  • Motherboard: Asus P8Z77-V LK
  • Processor: Intel i7 3770K
  • RAM: 16 GB DDR3 (4x4 GB, 1600 MHz)
  • GPU: GTX 750 Ti
  • Storage: 512 GB SSD

The issue I am facing is as follows: when I install the RAM sticks in the black slots (2x4 GB) or the blue slots (2x4 GB), the PC boots without any problems. However, when I attempt to use all four RAM slots simultaneously, the system fails to boot and displays a DRAM error, accompanied by a red light indicator on the motherboard.

I have already taken the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:

  1. Updated the BIOS to the latest version.
  2. Verified that the PSU is functioning properly.
  3. Checked the processor socket pins for any damage.

Despite these efforts, I am unable to boot with three or four RAM sticks installed. I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions you could provide to help resolve this issue.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

no one reply on my post i think Asus user not active and interested

Hello @IronMan2080 

Thank you for reaching out to us and we apologize for the delayed response due to the recent local holiday.
May I inquire if the situation you described occurred following any recent changes, such as a BIOS update or the connection of an external device?
Could you please share the memory part number and confirm that if the four currently installed memory modules are listed in the P8Z77-V LK Memory QVL, and do they come from the same kit?
We recommend clearing CMOS and checking if the system can boot successfully with the default BIOS settings.
Additionally, please ensure that the current BIOS, intel firmware, and driver versions are all sourced from the P8Z77-V LK support page.

Thank you.
