krazyl Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 The problem is, not so long ago one of my sticks went bad. Sent it out under warranty and I recieved the new ram. Now I am having probelms get the system to boot with both sticks in. It will boot with 1 stick in it, but I pop in the second stick it hangs and does nothing, no post, no beep codes just dead in the water. I tried swapping out sticks and the other stick doesn't boot at all. So I am thinking another bad stick but looking for a lil feed back before I sit with no PC for another 2 weeks. Thanks in advance! -kl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
