Computer problem (need help)
Hello,
I hope posting this here could bring me any kind of help.
I've got a little problem with my computer:
I bought a strip of new ram memory (1 gig pc3200) for my pc.
The store manager told me it could also be used in a pc2100 slot, so i tried it.
But when i installed it, (did everything by the book) my pc wouldn't start.
It gave me 3 short beeps wich stands for Base 64K RAM failure.
I took out the new ram and put the old one back in, but when I try to start it now, it gets as far as the brand screen, and after that it just turns black.
No matter what combination of memory i use, it just won't work.
If anyone can help me with this, I'd be so thankfull!!
Oh, Computer specs are:
Compaq EVO (don't know exactly which type of EVO)
Pentium 4 2.4 gHz
It used to have 768mb ram (pc2100), i tried 1 gig pc 3200 in combination with 512mb pc2100
Nvidia Geforce 6200 (256mb) videocard <- had just put this one in, didn't cause any trouble, but might be a crucial part in all of this.
Thanks in advance,
~D
