Sorry my english may be bad, but i have a problem right now!

Yesterday I installed a new RAM stick, upgrading my computer to 512 mb RAM. After the first reboot, everything was okay and my computer was supporting the new RAM stick. But this morning, i reboot my computer and it freezed up on reboot, some letters was appearing everywhere and then no more activity... I tryed to reboot and now my screen is staying on a sleep mode ( like when there is no activity ) . So i can't reboot, but i hear the fan or power supply...

I was wondering if the problem was my motherboard...

Anyone canhelp?
 
Take out that new memory stick and try again. Is that memory compatible and the same speed, CL etc?

The memory was defenitly the same speed and was compatible because i used it last night. I started the computer after the installation and everything was fine, i even tested it by playing a game and everything was going fine.

I have updated my motherboard drivers the day before and i saw a message after the memory installation reboot that the system was updating... The reboot was successful but it was the last one :confused:
