Hey guys, new to the forum. I've been here many times reading old posts, and I hope someone here can help me.
I bought some RAM off of a friend, and I've been trying to get it working. I've only got a 1 GB, stick and I bought a 2GB Dual-Channel pack. They're a G-Skill 240-pin DDR2 2x1GB 2GB Pack, model number F2-6400CL4D.
Anyway, I have a green and an orange RAM slot. The green is nearest to the CPU. (Picture and specs of MB in the link at the bottom of my post). When I put either stick into the orange slot, my computer will not boot at all. No visual of the BIOS screen, anything. And I get the continuous long beep error code (indicating a memory problem). When either stick is the only one, and in the green one, my PC functions fine. On CPU-Z, my memory tab says that I'm running in Single Channel Mode. I was wondering if I needed to update my BIOS, or if it was a logic error on my part.
Here's the info on my motherboard: newegg(dot)com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130542
