Hi Guys !!!

I really need your help people. Today i purchased 2x 1gb ram sticks, i had 2 gb total and i wanted to get 4 gb for the 64 bit OS, but, when i install the new ram, when i put just one stick ( 3 gb total ) the computer boots up, but when i try to install the other ram stick (4 gb total) and when the computer boots up, i get an error, (windows error recovery) it shows two optiones to choose, i dont remember them but the first was something to repair the system, when i click it, i get the blue screen of death. My motherboard can support 8 gb of ram in total, but i cant install more than 3 GB,, PLEASE HELP ME, i don't want to just threw 1 gig of ram away :(

Sounds like one of your ram sticks is bad or maybe the port on the motherboard try booting with each stick individually if only one stick won't boot then that stick is bad. If all boot then try booting with one stick but switching ports on the motherboard after each boot if one fails then that is the problem

All ram sticks work and all ports work i tested them, the only problem is that i can't add more than 3 gb because i get that error.

RA isn't compatible with each other, so that's why you can't boot

I still don't think that that is the problem, i put 3x 1gb and 1x 512 mb and it still doesnt boot, 3 GB and above my pc will not boot :(

My computer is: "Fujitstu Siemens Celsius w350" and my motherboard is "D2317-A2" and my current version of BIOS is "6.00 R1.04.2317.A2". Can you look if i have the latest version of bios cause i can't find it nowhere.

Try looking for NB voltage and see if it can be adjusted, try raising it + 0.07
