Mixing/matching RAM like this is not doing you any good, and could be causing problems. You want a matched set.

Are those "virtual drives"? They look like it. Pro Tools does not support the use of virtual drives. Make sure they are disabled when using Pro Tools.

I disabled the virtual drives.
You mean that Ram aren't placed in the corect slots ? or that they are not compatible with each other ?

What to do ?

You've got a lot of other stuff running while you are using Pro Tools... I see Avast, and what looks like a "virtual dongle" (I'm guessing that's to authorize reFX Nexus which requires a REAL dongle for authorization)? Also some other things... all could be interfering with Pro Tools.

Check my signature...

No, they should be matched... 2GB and 2GB. same/same. Not one 1GB stick and one 2GB stick.

Even if i disable and close all those things i got the same problem. And even so with a 2,5 ghz quad core they should all work.
One thing that i forgot to mention is that i didn't reinstalled windows when i changed motherboard and processor.

Yeah, I know; I'm the one recommending that you do that in your other thread.
