i have them in slots 3 and 4, the black ones. the gray ones are what they recommend for optimization. i'll try that next.
i'm on day 3 or so of no kernel panics. and my bluetooth is running smoothly.
i'm not sure the computer is going to sleep, though. does some method exist by which i can check this? i think this weekend i'm going to try the ram in the other slots.
i went several days, with my ram chips in bank 1 without any problems. on saturday, i moved the chips to bank 0. immediately after first boot, i had a kernel panic on a wake from sleep. i let things sit to see what would happen. i made it through this morning when i had another kernel panic. so i've moved the chips back to bank 1.
i'm going to let it run again and see what happens. i'm wondering if one of the ram banks is no good. then i'm wondering if i can sell my ram chips and get two 16b chips to run in bank 1.
thoughts?
How's your build going? I installed the G.Skill Ripjaws RAM on Friday night, and I have woken from a single panic yet. I'm starting to believe that the Crucial/Corsair sticks that tonymac's buyers guide suggests is the culprit.
