OK, so here is the deal. The computer I am working on has an ECS C19-A SLI Motherboard in it. I have 2 1GB sticks of Corsair DDR2 667. When I have both sticks in the computer in and configuration, I just see a flash of the POST and then a reboot loop over and over. I can not get into the BIOS. If I have just one stick of RAM in the board in any slot, the system boots fine (It doesn't matter which stick I use). Anyone have an idea whats going on?
I am just starting to troubleshoot this, but it is a weird issue, so I thought I would ask. Well, back to the grindstone on this one.
edit: Crap. Both sticks of RAM work fine in the system if I remove one of the Video cards. I have a 500W Antec PSU in the system but I am starting to suspect it may be the culprit.
edit2: OK. I have just tried a different PSU and I get the exact same results. If I have 2 sticks of RAM AND 2 Video cards plugged in the computer restarts during POST and I can not get into the BIOS even. If I remove 1 video card OR 1 stick of RAM, everything boots fine.
