justintime32 Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I recently bought a CMX512-3200XLPT memory stick to put in my hp Pavilion a250n. When it came to my house, I added it into a free memory slot, and when I turned the computer on it did nothing. The boot screen didn't even come up. Any suggestions on what I could do to get this thing to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMC_SAVAGE Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Bad news. This module is way beyond what that system could handle. You could try the Corsair module by itself. You'd be lucky if it worked with the current RAM. Bottom line is that the MOBO was made for HP (not a retail MOBO). The BIOS is probably limited as far as RAM settings are concerned. If there are options, getting the RAM to run at the rated SPD would be doubtful. The correct RAM would be the System Select, Part # CMSS512MB-333.
