Butting in for Vegnagun, anything memory would likely be under some sort of "memory" or "chipset" menu, so that would be a good start. Lets try everything else before you re-install .

I've looked in "Standard feat.", "Advanced", and "Chipset". Nothing. Settings for voltages, freq and timings in "Chipset feat." There's a mysterious "OS comp" (OS compatability), that is set to "Auto". I have also looked in the User Manual index - most of the options are there, nothing about memory remapping.

Allright.. http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/t249603.html

Have you disabled any memory shadowing or memory hole options in BIOS?
Try that.

In fact, try to find and list all the options you have that have anything to due with memory..

May be such a thing that your board doesnt like the RAM either, Nvidia chipsets seem to be having problems with some RAM from what I hear .

There's no such option, I'm pretty sure. I looked through the manual and BIOS itself. I haven't flashed the BIOS though. Might be that they added the option? Going to flash BIOS now...

Flashed BIOS. Option is not there, but the problem is still there. Seems reinstalling Vista is my only option. I was going to reinstall it anyways on the 2x80GB RAID0 on Wednesday. I will let you know if I get 4GB available.
