New RAM problems

Recommended Posts

I have put in a new stick of ram (1GB) but the system won't recognize its in there, It can be seen when i run cpuz but windows won't see it still.

I've tried moving them round, it still didn't work and tried starting with just the 1GB in but it just beeped at me.

Try the Taskmanager to check if there are 2GB physical memory available - otherwise I always thought you must not mix RAM size and shouldn't leave a slot empty.

 

Always 2 x 512, 2 x 1GB, ....

I don't know about mixing sizes but there are only 3 slots on the board. I'm on the other computer right now but i'm pretty sure it was at 1GB too still, Windows won't recognice is but the Crutial memory test sees it and so does cpuz.

If it beeps you with just the 1GB in the computer I think it's a pretty much strong indicator that something is wrong with it or that your board is not compatible with it, so i would trade it in.
