I have a Core i3 3220 in an H61 board. The bios is updated to latest rev for compatibility. I currently am using ddr3-1066 Ram which i believe is not compatible with i3 3220. With a borrowed graphics card installed and a monitor hooked to it, I was able to boot and install Windows. But without the graphics card installed, using the vga port on the motherboard, i get no video signal and 1 long 3 short bios beeps indicating memory error. My question is, could the i3 be failing to output video due to slower ram speed. Does it need at least ddr3-1333 to produce the video through the motherboard?
