I wanted to upgrade from 2GB to 4 GB (or whatever 32 bit can read). I bought a new ram. Both sticks are working in either of the sockets individually. But, when I try to place them both and restart, I hear a 'beep' sound and then as if computer stops there only, it does not boot to Bios and further. Killing power and then removing one of the sticks restarts the computer normally.
I have updated my bios too to the latest update but problem persists.
I am out of ideas and need suggestion. Request you to please shed some light on it. I guess I can return the newly bought ram but then I wish to upgrade to 3-4 GB.
