Hey guys, I'm in need of help...
I have an A7V333 motherboard, BIOS rev 1016, Built date: 01/28/03 with an Athlon XP 1800+. I recently brought home various RAM chips from my shop to upgrade my memory.
When I add more RAM, the BIOS displays the correct # of memory but after Windows XP loading screen comes up, the PC restarts and then the wrong # of memory is displayed and again afer Windows XP loading screen, PC restarts. If I try to go through Safe Mode, at the driver loading screen. If I add 3 chips at 512MB each (512x3), I cannot see anything on the screen at all. But when the third chip is 256MB, my screen atleast shows something (but won't boot to XP).
Why can't I add more RAM to my PC?
I have used combinations of; Samsung PC3200 512MB DDR CL3, Samsung PC3200 512MB DDR CL2.5, PC2700 2.5, PC21000 CL2 and still no go
Please help. Thanks in advance.
