Are there any known problems running 4 x 512 (filling all 4 memory slots with a total of 2 GB) of non ECC memory in motherboards with the Intel 865PE chipset? The motherboards like the ASUS P4P800, ECS 865 PE-A7, MSI 865PE Neo3, etc.?

Summary: I already cleared the CMOS. The BIOS is very basic. There's no place to change the RAM timings, so there's no overclocking. I have tested individually both the original RAM (4 sticks: 2 512MB & 2 256...
