Hello fellow techies.
I'm having issuse trying to upgrade a friend's computer. I downloaded a pdf for specs and it states the board can support 16 gigs max @ 4 gigs per slot. The ram it supports is DDR3 1066 and 1333. I had no luck with acer tech support in finding a compatibility list for the memory.
I settled on pacific sun ddr3 1333 (2×4 gig stick). I tried installing the memory and I get blue screened. I thought maybe 1 of the sticks was faulty so I swapped 1 out with the same result. Any tips on what I can do to find compatible ram?

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm an idiot....
the pdf I downloaded was for a generic coverall M3910..
I did more research and I have the AM3910-UR30P which only supports a maximum of 8 gigs...
So it would be only 2 gigs per slot.
DERP! :(
