F3-14900CL9-16GBXL on ASUS MAXIMUS IV EXTREME bios setup

We keep getting Error 2E no POS on the ASUS MAXIMUS IV EXTREME MoBO with all 4 of the the set of F3-14900CL9-16GBXL installed. If we us only 2 on any slot the PC is booting but very slow. The mobo bios has the latest verson on ASUS web side http://usa.asus.com/Motherboards/Int...emeZ/#download

Please help us to set up the BIOS or some tip to get the system work.
Thanks,

cau54,

Sounds like defective motherboard or bad CPU. Do you have the latest BIOS?

Thank you

I also tried the g.skill F3-10600CL8D-4GBHK with just two sticks in the A2 B2 slots and it worked fine. The CPU doesn't seem to be the problem because it has run fine at this point. Mostly, I've just had the 2E error code (Memory initialization error) when I use 4 sticks of any type of memory, (IE. I've tried with the 2 different sets of g.skill and a full set of corsair CM3x1024-1333C9).

The bios we have tried is version 0902 which is the latest released within the last couple weeks.

Can you verify if the F3-14900CL9Q-16GBXL is compatible with that mother board?

When I booted the system with the f3-1490CL9Q-16GBXL in just 2 slots A1/B1 or A2/B2 the system is unstable and runs quite slow. It also sometimes does not recognize the harddrive with these memory being used.

Thanks!

Yes, the memory is compatible.

Test one at a time in A2 to see if one performs differently.

Thank you

RMA help

After following your instruction with running each memory individually in slot A2, One of the sticks was getting the error 2E upon booting while the others booted fine.

How can I go about getting an RMA for this set of sticks?

thanks for the help!
