i just got a new 128 MB DDR (Hynix) and tried to install it . After that Windows started normally till the bootscreen and suddenly a memory warning message came and my comp restarted..... After that it always hangs at the bootscreen..... I also have dual booted the comp with Linux but that too hangs at the login screen. I tried running in safe mode(Windows) ...then it boots but the explorer gives a fatal error and the error message cannot be put out of scope...!!! I have double checked the pins and slot numbers .... what is the solution ?
It happens so many times... OS dont take RAM changes easily... I remember when i got a new stick... XP showed me a msg that it cant boot with my current hardware settings... But i restarted in safe mode.. and luckily it got back to normal! LINUX... i had to reinstall! It hanged and gave kernel panic! So a bitter solution is... reinstall the whole system again! And even after reinstallation...the system doesnt work; your RAM is faulty with Memory Leak problem!! Get it replaced! REgards, Zooom..!!
hey...i forgot to check this thread out ....BTW ....Zoom....i had to do that...i had to waste one evening on backing up my data and formatting the drives .....but it was worth it.... works like a charm now.... thanx anyway.
U must replace ur Ram b4 it stops working completely, it bcoz of Ram is not 100 %. or may be not matched with ur Mother Board.
