Hi, i jz bought DFI RD200, but i can't use my teamgroup TCCD RAM on it.. izzit i need to upgrade the BIOS? I try to use dual channel cannot boot up, get beeping sound. I try configure as single channel, it is working... i know tat DFI is a picky mobo, so anyone can share his/her solutions?

Haha...

The RDX200 board is the worst board ever manufactured by DFI.Flashing bios is a must for DFI boards.

Har, really, damn lo ... luckily i bought it at cheap price so won't be disappointed...
So anyone know where can i find the Mod-BIOS for the RDX200...?

juz wondering...hv u tried the other ram slots?
coz i've had those prob when
i used my mushkin tccd wit my ultra-d
tried many combination n lastly those
2 orange slots works for me...maybe it could for u

as far as i know TCCD ram need to be in the orange slot and BH-5 chip need to be in yellow slot..

before flashing to new BIOS, try suggestion made by this poster, well, i'm using TCCD but on SLI-DR, at first, i plugged-in to yellow slot, it won't boot after swapped to orange slot, it boot.

wonder rd200 is whether same as sli-dr expert since both boards layout is almost identical.

well, I just want to correct what mnemonic_80 said.

Orange for TCCD, yellow for BH5 only applied to NF4 ultra-d/sli-d/sli-dr, but not to Expert and Venus.

if you put BH5 into yellow slot on Expert and go oc it, even a bit, you'll notice something during loading windows.

Gsan, sorry for my noob question, but why is it so? (i mean the orange and yellow thing)
Nothing was stated in the manuals on this.
Luckily i saw this, if not i would think it's the ram fault.

actually, for nf4 non expert or venus, both yellow or orange slot work fine for tccd & bh5, but bh5 on orange and tccd on yellow can be overclocked better.

but for expert (not sure about venus), you cant overclock well if you put bh5 on yellow slot.

yellow slot = better for BH-5

orange slot = for TCCD

yeah....already make an experiment....

but just like gsan mention (thanx for correcting me ).. it's just for nf4 ultra-d, sli-d n sli-dr... but for expert board if u put bh-5 chip into yellow slot.. something strange will come out on ur screen.. even when u run memtest, i've tested it with my expert board.. but dunno for venus

You ought to have checked up with DFI for compatibility mate...

Hmm...gotta try it out by running my TCCD in the yellow slots.
See if anything happens...
Wierd, wierd...Going to do some googling on this...hehe...

Yellow slot won't work at all for me.

Tried BH5,TCCD and UCCC before,on yellow slot won't boot at all.It will only boot on Orange slot.But it depends la......you guys can't just say Yellow slot = BH5 and Orange slot = TCCD.Only n00b will say like that.Best way is you try which slot works best for you.You don't try,you won't know.

yo bro....not all newbies is noob....
said like that coz already try it ar on my SLi D.....

Just tested booting my Ultra-d for the 1st time.
Used Kingston KVR to test, and it would not even boot on the yellow slot, but on the orange slot, it works.
Btw, i don't know what chips r those kingstons running on as they run on kingston rebranded chips.

not sure that how far you measure "wont boot at all" ? you tried it more than 50 times? or just 10 times?

I cannot say that every dfi nf4 also act weird like what I experienced, but what I noticed was I used ultra-d rev.AD0 and rev.AE1, sli-dr expert, all have the same problem. I owned 4 BH5s and 2 BH6s, when I installed in the same yellow slot, sometime it can boot easily, sometime cannot, even I tried till wanna give up also like that, but at last can booting up (thanks to my patient ).
