Dell Inspiron 8600
Bought it with the 256 RAM [As low as I could go]
And bought a full gig of kingmax SODIMM DDR400.
When I have just the dell 256 in, it boots up fine. If I put the gig in dimm 2, the screen flickers and it doesn't boot. I've tried all possible setups [The gig in dimm 1, 256 in dimm 2, just the gig in, etc]
No matter which dimm its in, it doesn't boot.
It supports a gig per dimm. The only thing that doesn't match up is how fast it is [It supports upto 2700, and this is 3200, and thats not a problem, unless we have a retarded computer right?]
Sounds like I got bad ram, time for an RMA?
Or any other suggestions?
