Crosshair Formula IV + Corsair Dominator GT 4GB 1866 Problem

[mjbdc07]

i just got the ram today and plugged it into my mobo, the qled indicator lights says there is a problem with the ram, i tried just using one stick both times it didn't get past the dram light.

I currently do not have a video card installed so i can't go into the bios, i also tried the memok! button and it still won't pass dram light.

is there a problem with my ram or do i just need to go into the bios once i get my video card and change some settings?

here are my specs: Crosshair Formula IV + Corsair Dominator GT 4GB 1866 + Phenom II 965 + Ultra X3 1000w

I wouldn't be overly concerned until such time as you've got a setup that will at least allow you to view bios. Did you try a cmos reset?

yup i tried the cmos reset, also the memok when i press it the pc reboots several times but the result is the same each time. i'm getting the video card next week so hopefull it's just a settings problem and not the ram itself.
