i bought a 1 gig stick and some 512's for my comp.. but it only beeps when i try to start it. whats wrong?
I wanted to upgrade my comp. its only pc 100, but i just want soemthing a little fastwer for now till i finish my custom comp. but anyway i put in a new 1 gig stick. when i try to boot up, it just beeped like nothing was in there. so, figuring it just couldnt handle 1 gig in a slot i bought some 512's. i put only one in, and it did the same thing. all of them were ecc ram and i dont know what that is. could that be it? and if not why else would they not be compatable? i have upgraded the ram before, but only up to 384mg's. also im only running at 1.1 ghz on an intel chip. and the chips were securely placed in the slots. wut could be wrong and what kind of chip do i need specifically?
ECC requires special chipset support.
i doubt seriously your pc takes ECC ram
you probably need
