TCCD RAM Problem

I've got a rather interesting problem, and was wondering if anyone else has heard of it, and/or has a fix for it. I've got a DFI nf4 SLI, AMD X2 4400+, and recently got a second gig of Corsair XL TCCD memory (4 x 512MB). Now, my first gig ran up to 330mhz or so, and it looks like the secodn one will too. Running either set of sticks in slots 1 & 3 is great. When I run one set in 2 & 4 or all four at once, I can't POST. I've narrowed down the problem to CAS latency - if CAS latency is set to anything other than auto, it won't POST. Other than that, I've got it running great, and no other settings seems to effect this problem at all.

Has anyone heard of not being to adjust CAS latency? I really want to run this memory at 270mhz+, so I'll need to loosen CAS to 2.5 or 3.

Any help is much appreciated.

I'm aware, and it is. Like I said, everything is fine, unless I try to change CAS latency. Then it won't POST. And I can't overclock it as far as I want with CAS 2.

Thanks,

I have the same problem with my 2x512 Corsair Value. If i try to change the stock CAS of 2.5 -> 3 my PC won't post. I'm able to change the other timings though :(
 
Infiniti, have you tried Cas3.5? Sometimes RAM doesn't like certain latencies, and going to another latency will fix it. I had a set of PC4000 Corsair that wouldn't do anything but Cas3. The weird thing is that I've tested both of my sets and the ram itself doesn't mind changing latencies, it appears it's the slots that are causing the problem.
