Hey all, I know some similar topics such as this have been posted before, but found nothing that can solve my specific system problems and I hope you can shed some light on it.
My specs:
Intel Core2 Duo E6750 @2.66GHz
2GB (2X1GB DIMMS with then an additional 2 Crucial 1GB PC2-5300 240-pin DIMM DDR2 sticks)
32bit Windows 7 OS Service Pack 1
775 LGA Socket
Conroe 1333 DV/H Motherboard with PCI Express 1.0
i945G Chipset
The RAM was recommended by the crucial website after entering mu current specs, meaning the RAM I ordered should work in my two empty slots, either that of crucial have misled me, surely leading to me being able to be refunded?
I originally installed the two new sticks into the two empty slots on my mobo, (the two not in use were orange, the other two in use were yellow) and when the PC booted up, the system would run but nothing would appear on screen, and the original loud noise of turning my computer on would not cease.
I then saw somewhere that my BIOS may need updated, and indeed it did, I updated it to the most recent version that my E6750 was supported by (as of the Intel website) and updated all of my drivers and software updates. I then retried the process and the same error occurred.
I'm so perplexed as to why this is happening, as it appears to me that all of my ends are covered in ensuring this can be installed correctly?
I hope I've provided all of the information necessary.
Many thanks in advance, Ross.
