So I have and computer with a:
Motherboard: Asus M4A785TD-V EVO
CPU: AMD PHENOM IIX4 945
OS: WINDOWS 7 PRO X64 SP1
HHD 2TB
RAM: 4GB(2x2gb) GSKILL DDR3 1333 10600
VIDEO CARD: AMD RADEON 7700
I decided to upgrade my OS to win 8.1, my storage to a 128gb ssd and 2tb hhd. And add more ram I bought PNY DDR3 1333 10666 (2x8gb)
Everything I read says that the ram should be compatible with my current ram or at least my motherboard
I reset my CMOS by pulling the battery. I install my ram (old and new) and I don't make it to BIOS.
I try only the new ram and get the same. I try one stick of the new ram at a time and get the same. I use the old ram only and boot just fine. I dont know what to do from this point is this ram DOA
