Hello everyone,
After many problems with my PC over the last 3 days, yet another one arises. This time, even though my PC is in working condition, I can only use 2 gb of ram. I have 1+1 gb GEIL and 2 gb Kingmax. For some reason(using 4gb's) my PC will only POST if I remove the CMOS battery. After that I will get one POST but at the next restart my screen will stay black,with no sound,no post,nothing. IF I remove the 2 gb's of RAM from kingmax, my pc works fine.
What could be the cause of this and what can I do to use the other 2 gb as well. On my old motherboard all the ram sticks were working just fine so they are not fried or anything. Looks like they are just not compatible. Opinions?
