RTFM. That's why they give one with every motherboard Wink

It states which slots to use.

They shouldn't be. 0.2v extra, although quite a lot, shouldn't be enough to kill them that fast. ]]> Sat, 10 Dec 2016 23:42:49 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3988&PID=20454&title=970-pro3-r2-0-problems#20454 <![CDATA[970 Pro3 R2.0 problems : the board is new i loaded also...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=3988&PID=20453&title=970-pro3-r2-0-problems#20453 Author: ari

the board is new
i loaded also the standart biossettings(load uefi defaults)  and update the bios via internetflah
so you mean the rams (which was working fine before ) are not toast ?

1.7v won't damage the system right away, only with prolonged use if the RAM is not specced for 1.7v. Some faster DDR3 RAM (2400+) is rated at 1.65v by default. 

Is the board new or purchased used? I see no reason why it would default to 1.7v unless someone used 1.65v RAM in it before you got it. It may have been tested at a store for example. Either way, no damage should have been done so soon.

What version of windows are you using? I am going to guess XP as you were able to press f8 to load safe mode?

If it is XP then my steps will not work, your only choice then will be a fresh install. I need to point out here that the problem is not with the system but with the lack of drivers for the OS to boot. Before you change any more settings perform a clean install of windows. Don't forget to set your RAM voltage back to 1.5 as Wardog mentioned, you could damage your system with 1.7v.
