memory Mumbo Jumbo

This motherboard BIOS has me all confused....
The timings that are listed for my dram are
2.5-4-4-8

Could someone please tell me how to translate this into the following settings...

- DRAM Clock -AUTO
- CAS latency Time -AUTO
- Row Cycle Time -AUTO
- Row Refresh Cycle Time -AUTO
- RAS# to CAS# delay -AUTO
- RAS# to RAS# delay -AUTO
- Min RAS# Active time -AUTO
- RAS# Precharge Time -AUTO
- Write Recovery Time -AUTO
- Write to Read Delay -AUTO
- DRAM Command rate -AUTO
- Burst Length -4 beats
- Bank Interleaving -Enabled
32 bit Dram Memory Hole -Auto
MTRR mapping mode -Continuous

The names are so simular to
CL--tRCD-tRP-tRAS-Command but I am not sure which goes where

Thank you all

Hi, those timings are for

RAS# to CAS# delay
RAS# to RAS# delay
Min RAS# Active time
RAS# Precharge Time

When you turn CAS latency Time to manual you will be able to enter those timings

If those timings are programmed into the SPD chip (which tells your Bios what the standard settings are), then your computer should set them automatically. You can use CPUID to see exactly what everything is. It's free, works on Vista 64/32, and is a nice little tool to have.

Thanks that was helpful
I got it working ...
1- Install only one module
2- Set Manual and then set the Timings... Crucial finally replied and answered and translated.
