I have a lenovo z460 laptop that comes with a 2G ram 1333. I added a 4G memory stick 1333, but since i only have a 32bit operating system i only got 2.9G out of 6G. So i've decided to upgrade to a 64Bit OS. So i removed the 4G stick first to avoid conflict then installed a 64bit OS. After installing the OS I installed the 4G stick to the laptop then at boot i was prompted a system repair. But it only leads me to a black screen after windows loading files. Tried starting normally but im stuck with the loading screen.

I think yes, the os is fine. I updated the chipset, video card, wireless lan etc. before installing the new stick. I also tried rearranging the sticks but no luck. Tried using the 4G stick only still the same happens.

It is ok for me to run only at 4G stick but the problem is still there. Any chance this is a problem with the 4G stick?
