Hello,
I have been using Dell Optiplex GX1 desktop with 756MB RAM under Windows XP Professional with no problem but slow, until recently when I replaced my 3 x 256MB SDRAM modules with 2 x 512MB ones. It just gave me a blank display.
After realizing that it support only 256MB, I put them back the previous SDRAM in place, the machine just give me the options to select "Run the windows normally" etc. Whichever option I chose it always return to the Dell opening screen on and on.
Entering the BIOS setup, I change the ACIP from "Off" to "On" which I surely knew it wont boot, anyway i did that. After it cycled back to the Dell opening screen, I enter the BIOS setup again and switch back the ACIP to Off, and it boot normally.
Everytime I need to turn on my computer, I have to do the same sequence: turning the ACIP ON then turning it back OFF.
I was using A07 BIOS version. Changed to A10 did not give any help.
Please help.
