Spd-s memory damaged - Roland Spd-S Sampling Percussion Pad System

did you fix it?

I am not understanding the problem. Does it make any sound at all? If so Does the unit make all the sounds it was programed to do?

The board has two 240-pin DIMM sockets and supports the following memory features:

• 1.8 V (only) DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
• Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction: Double-sided DIMMs with x16 organization are not supported.
• 2 GB maximum total system memory
• Minimum total system memory: 128 MB
• Non-ECC DIMMs
• Serial Presence Detect
• DDR2 533 or DDR2 400 SDRAM DIMMs

Note
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency.

the RAM upgrade will depend on ur motherboard capacity and specification.
u need to check ur MB manual
if ur MB can have only SD RAM then only SD RAM upgrade is possible...DDR will not work....
so be careful while buying ur RAM

intelD845GLLy MB...the following details are from the intel website

System Memory Features
The D845GLLY board provide the following memory features:

• Two DIMM sockets supporting 3.3 V (only) 168-pin 133 MHz Single Data Rate (SDR) SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
• Unbuffered non-ECC DIMMs only
• Maximum total system memory: 2 GB; minimum total system memory: 64 MB
• Serial Presence Detect (SPD) DIMMs only
• Suspend to RAM

Caution Do not use ECC DIMMs with the Desktop Board. Using ECC DIMMs could damage the Desktop Board.
Integrator's Notes:

• Registered DIMMs are not supported on the Desktop Board.
• This Desktop Board has been designed to support DIMMs based on 512 Mbit technology for a maximum onboard capacity of up to 2 GB, but this technology has not been validated on this board.

Note To be fully compliant with all applicable PCI33 SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance.
hope this helps

You can reset Roland SPD-S by using Roland SPD-S utility CD supplied with product.
If you can't locate (or lost) the CD that is included with the SPD-S which contains the factory data, you can download the file here:

http://www.rolandus.com/products/pro...37&ParentId=61

Click the downloads tab and select the "SPD-S Factory Restore Data" (PC or Mac) link.

I think it helps.

If you have any query regarding this issue leae a feedback we were happy to assist you.


Have a Nice Day!

if you have the samples in .WAV then you will have to IMPORT them, because SPD-S can only play .SPD files (import will convert from WAV to SPD).If you have produced your samples with your SPD-S (via mic or line-in or PhraseMaker) then they are already in .SPD-format and can be assigned without importing.
In this case you just have to assign a sample to a pad, by pressing CARD ("card"=lit) you can assign samples from your CF-card to a pad.

Yes that should not be a problem as DDR is backward compatible with the slower speeds so the faster RAM, will just slow down to match. These are the only conditions listed so as long as the stick you have doesn't fall under this criteria you should be good.

he D845GLVA board provide the following memory features:

• 2.5 V (only) 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
• Unbuffered single-sided or double-sided DIMMs
• Maximum total system memory: 2 GB; minimum total system memory: 64 MB
• DDR266/200 MHz SDRAM DIMMs only
• Serial Presence Detect (SPD)

CAUTION:
Do not use ECC DIMMs with this board. Using ECC DIMMs could damage the board.
Integrator's Notes:

• Registered DIMMs are not supported.
• Double-sided x16 DIMMs are not supported.
• If a full-length PCI add-in card is installed in PCI bus connector 1 (the PCI bus connector closest to the processor), remove the add-in card before installing or upgrading memory to avoid interference with the memory retention mechanism.
• This board has been designed to support DIMMs based on 512 Mbit technology for a maximum onboard capacity of up to 2 GB, but this technology has not been validated (currently validated up to 1.0 GB) on this board.

Note:
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance.

Enjoy the increase in RAM,

Hi Raj_jp, the Intel D845GLLY board must have SPD memory to function correctly in the system. The memory you added (512MB) must not support SPD. To help you understand what SPD is, you can click on this link which explains what SPD is.

The memory sold in this next link will function in you're Intel motherboard. http://www.memory-up.com/Memory/IntelD12696.html
So will the memory in this next link.

If you bought the 256MB memory recently, you should be able to return it & have it exchanged. The link above also lists the part number for the memory.

Good Luck!
Remember you're Intel motherboard uses you're system memory to run the onboard video card. The total amount of memory the video card uses can be adjusted higher or lower. You can adjust this in the bios. Go to Advanced Menu. Page 40 in the Intel user manual. You can download you're manual at this link.
