drummermalti Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Hi, I have just bought two Corsair VS512MB400C3 RAM pieces. I got home, got them attached to the mother board (with another two 128MB RAM pieces), and switched on the PC. Everything seemed fine.. the performance seemed better than before. But after some 20mins or so, the PC crashed and I had to restart. On booting, it gave me a blue screen and said something a file pci.xxx (xxx = I cannot recall exactly what they were). I rebooted, and it did it again. After removing the newly installed 512MB pieces, the system booted up normally. What can I do so as to use the new RAM pieces? Is it not comaptible with my Motherboard? Please note that I am a bit vague where it comes to BIOS. P.S. I checked "System" from My Computer and everything seemd fine .. it read 1.25GB of RAM. Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJLeong65 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 There's your problem. You've been mixing different RAM modules in your system. The VS512MB400C3 modules should not be mixed with any other module of different speeds or timings in order to work properly in your system.
