RAM problem after removing the battery

Hello everyone. Please tell me what could be the problem. Today I disassembled the computer, cleaned it and inadvertently pulled out the battery, after turning on the computer does not see all 8 gigs of RAM. That is, 8 gigs are installed, in the properties it sees 6 gigs and uses only 4 gigs. Will reinstalling Windows help? or how you can restore it. Thank you for your help !!!! Win 8.1 64, motherboard gigabytes ga-990fxa-ud3 latest BIOS version

It is
dangerous to update MoskoWRus Bios in general and is absolutely useless. I read your comments above, you updated it in perfect working order, I ask, why? It is updated only in case of emergency, for example, due to incompatibility with new hardware (very rare). With a regular update, you can stupidly spoil the mat. the board and write was gone, your glitch with memory can be just such a side effect.

I updated it only once a long time ago, and then out of necessity. Here they just advised to roll back the version

You have one bar in the wrong place, there is no two-channel mode. Aida showed. should be written Dual DDR, not DDR SDRAM.

can take you on a screenshot, please, where she showed it. Hmm .. well, I'll try to put it differently

well, if so, how to fix it? I have the planks right now where they stood from the beginning

look what Aida writes in the test.

Well, in my Aida it says that the memory type is sdram

white rectangle is where to try to put it?

I have option 1 on the motherboard where through one (red is memory). I drew 2 correct options, how it can work with different motherboards. If it writes SDRAM anyway. This is very bad, you need to check the memory one by one, and then sin on the BIOS parameters. By the way, did the bios roll back?

has not rolled yet, right now I'm downloading an update

The topic is the famous ba amd memory controller, honestly
speaking, it already bothered me myself when sometimes
waxing happens to get all the memory and reset the BIOS. harachit on the camp with a hammer to zero the BIOS and rearrange it into one or two channel memory configuration until the BIOS sees the memory correctly up to a byte. and look for a couple of times to give with a foot and a fist in the bios so as not to forget.

Try until you see dual ddr in Hades

Thank you for prompting you all day today))) I put the bars next to it and the will) began to see 8 gig, but in Aida it is still written dsram

R

this is bad, memory will work almost 2 times slower.

M

Ryazancev
but for sure I should have written dual ddr 3, I just didn't pay attention before, maybe it was always written sdram

this inscription means two-channel mode. With it, the performance is almost 2 times higher. Take the booklet from the motherboard and have a look. There it is drawn how to stick the planks correctly.

Here are the installation instructions for your
motherboard. This motherboard has four sockets and support for dual channel DDR3 memory technology. Once
the memory modules are installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the memory specifications and capacity. Enabling
Dual Channel Memory will double the original memory bandwidth.
The four DDR3 memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has two memory slots as
follows:
Channel 0: DDR3_2, DDR3_4
Channel 1: DDR3_1, DDR3_3

Due to processor limitations, please read the following guidelines before installing memory in dual channel mode.
1. Dual channel cannot be enabled if only one DDR3 memory module is installed.
2. When enabling dual channel mode with two or four memory modules, it is recommended that
memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used for optimal performance. For optimal
performance, when enabling dual channel mode with two memory modules, we recommend
installing them in DDR3_1 and DDR3_2 sockets.


in short, you need to stick into slots 1-2 or 3-4 !!!

Ryazancev,
in general, things are like this, if you stick in 1 and 2, then it does not see all 8 gigs, if in 4 and 3 also not all eight gigs, if 3 and 1 are not all eight gigs, but if 2 and 4 then sees everything.
