I have a Dell Dimension DIM4600
Intel
Pentium 4 CPU 2.60 GHz
2.59 GHZ 256 MB RAM
I bought 2 sticks of:
512MB True PC3200 DDR400 DDR-SDRAM 400 MHz fast!
CL3 , 3.2 GB/sec Bandwidth
184 pin Dimm (for desktop PCs, not for laptops) 64x64 modules, sub 5 nanosecond
Backward compatible to PC2700 and PC2100
Non ecc, non registered, unbuffered
This is what all the websites said that my computer's RAM needed.
My problem is that I can't get the computer to boot up with the new sticks in any of the slots. When I put the original RAM sticks back in, then the system boots up normally. When the computer read all 4 sticks and booted, I got the blue screen of death that said mismatched memory, or either I get beeps and blanks screen.
Help!
I updated all our computers and this is the last one and mine and I need more RAM!!
Any help will be greatly appreciated, this is about to drive me crazy because changing the RAM was so simple on the other 2 computers and mine is not cooperating at all.
Thanks in advance,
Carla
