Chapter 3: Motherboard info

3.4 MemOK! Switch

Installing DIMMs that are incompatible with the motherboard may cause system

boot failure, and the DRAM_LED near the MemOK! switch lights continuously. Press

and hold the MemOK! switch until the DRAM_LED starts blinking to begin automatic

memory compatibility tuning for successful boot.

• Refer to section 3.5 DRAM LED for the exact location of the DRAM_LED.

• The DRAM_LED also lights when the DIMM is not properly installed. Turn off the

system and reinstall the DIMM before using the MemOK! function.

• The MemOK! switch does not function under Windows® OS environment.

• During the tuning process, the system loads and tests failsafe memory settings. It

takes about 30 seconds for the system to test one set of failsafe settings. If the test

fails, the system reboots and test the next set of failsafe settings. The blinking speed

of the DRAM_LED increases, indicating different test processes.

• Due to memory tuning requirement, the system automatically reboots when each

timing set is tested. If the installed DIMMs still fail to boot after the whole tuning

process, the DRAM_LED lights continuously. Replace the DIMMs with ones

recommended in the Memory QVL (Qualied Vendors Lists) in this user manual or on

the ASUS website at www.asus.com.

• If you turn off the computer and replace DIMMs during the tuning process, the system

continues memory tuning after turning on the computer. To stop memory tuning, turn

off the computer and unplug the power cord for about 5–10 seconds.

• If your system fail to boot due to BIOS overclocking, press the MemOK! switch to boot

and load BIOS default settings. A message will appear during POST reminding you

that the BIOS has been restored to its default settings.

• We recommend that you download and update to the latest BIOS version from the

ASUS website at www.asus.com after using the MemOK! function.
