I recently purchased a Bing Bang Trinergy mobo. It's combined with an Intel i3 540 cpu and 2 Kingston KVR1333D3N9/2G ram modules. The mobo came with BIOS 1.1 version. When I've tried to update the BIOS to any version above 1.1 (1.2, 1.3, 1.4) and DUAL MEMORY CHANNEL is used, the system rans to slow, jerky sound immersed (can't play any video), the cores show above 60% load all the time, playing games is impossible (system hangs or blue screens appears), takes ages to load win7 Ultimate. I've tried everything, manual setting the timings of the ram, voltage, command rate 2N, nothing works. I've also test the system with 2xKINGSTON KHX1600C9AD3B1/2G ram modules but the same results obtained. I've checked all possible positions in dual channel mode, nothing. When only one module is used (single channel) then everything is ok. All the ram modules passed the memtest and verified for the their good working state.
The strange thing is that when the BIOS 1.1 version is used everything runs smoothly. BIOS update was perfomed with 2 different ways : 1. MSI windows application and 2. in DOS mode. Also the sound card (if God makes it a soundcard) sometimes worked and sometimes didn't.
