Need help putting in RAM

When i tried to put in my 512MB 184 Pin card i had to take my video card out to pull the white handle lock things all the way down. I think I got it in there good and matched the key up,but it dosent look like it whent down very deep in there. When I started up my computer it still said 512MB of RAM and the computer started up normaly without anything that seemed like it found the new RAM.
 
make sure you got the orientation correct it sounds like you did. then gently and evenly press down until that white handle pops back up and seats in the notch .

If its in a bad spot sometimes its easy to get it a lil catywampus get some good light line it up and when your all the way in its pretty obvious.
 
Ok I got it in and working, but when ever i get in BF2 when I start loading a game it crashes and there seems to be probelms with Internet Explorer crashing but i did the error report thing and it said to download an update and i did and now it works but I havnt tried running BF2
 
I got it to start but when the EA games thing popped up it had a bad spot on the screen and then it went to dice screen and it and kind of froze and then bf2 cut off and back to the desktop. I also unlocked the piplines on my 6800.
 
I uninstalled riva tuner but when I tried bf2 it had like grapics problems like the colors where going wierd on the menu then it cut off at the menu. It keeps cutting off and random places. Are there a lot of bad cards that come in or is it rare. Im going to try it now with riva tuner uninstalled.
 
I got of the phone with the t.s people and they said that the stick of Ram i have isnt compatible with my computer. I guess I got in a hurry when i was ordering it. I checked on the crucial memory website and the memory I have was on there so. I ordered my memory from frys outpost do you think I could return it or not?
 
If you bought it online, chances are you can return it with a 15% restocking fee (maybe not, depending on where you purchased it).
 
I talked to them they said that i could ship it back to them within 15 days and i guess i get a refund then i sent them an email about what kind of RAM i should get. I have a sony vaio PCV-RZ24G
