Hello community,
This may seem like common problem but, i really need helps on this, so here it goes.
My recent pc setup is:
MSI G41M-P23
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6660 2.4ghz
MSI Nvidia Geforce 210 1gb
Windows 8.1 64bit
Kingston DDR3 1333 2gb (x2)
so the problem is, i want to upgrade just a bit more. I installed 2x4gb same memory module. My computer wont start. I sent both pc and memory to a friend IT guy, he says maybe the memory faulty or my board problem cause it was already few years old. Okay, so i sent the memory back for a new ones. Still the same problem. My friend tried and he said he could get the pc working for a short time then it kept restarting again.So I change my board to a new model
MSI G41M-P33 Combo
And it still have the same problem. It can operate normaly with 2x2gb ddr3 1333 memory, but problems with 2x4gb ddr3 1333. I check crucial for the compatible memory swaps, they gave me the list and it says the board even support 2x4gb ddr3 1600. now that even puzzles me. I dont intend to just get a new generation high end pc cause its more simpler, but i just need a bit more ram for my work thats all. and i cant afford to get a new ddr3 1600 for it to work or maybe dont. i have sent the memory for a replacement 3 times already..
Please any advise or solution,
Thanks Community.
