Computer won't boot up after installing new RAM
There is a Elixir Part number, see the web site link below
and use there part numbering scheme, when you post back the actual part number then I can do a better comparison. http://www.elixir-memory.com/sup_name_rul_2.asp Also you Gigabyte motherboard uses "MIT's" technology which has been know to cause the PC to fail to boot on socket 775 motherboards when you first install new memory, this may or may not be the case with the older sockets 478 motherboards.

Hi Everyone Thank you so much for trying to help me solve the problem i am having. I checked Memory frequency in Bios and here what i found Memory Frequency For [Auto] Memory Frequency(MHZ) 400 AGP/PCI/SRC Frequency(MHZ) 66/33/100 Also here is what written on the old RAM which came with the computer,Please tell me if it is the same compatible with the new RAM i bought recently.Now i installed old RAM inorder to be able to use the computer. Old RAM : Two sticks of Elixir 256MB DDR-400MHZ, CL3 PC3200U-30330 New RAM: Two sticks of Kingston 1GB DDR PC-3200 Motherboard: Gigabyte Pentium 4 Titan Series, GA-8IPE1000-L Series FSB 800 , Dual DDR 400, AGP 8X, 2004 GT Edition Processor : 3.0GHZ Socket 478 I am not trying to install old RAM with new RAM,i am trying to only install the new RAM i got because i want more memory.If you can tell me if the above specifications are compatible i would be very much appreciated.Thanks again "JS" wrote: Kingston Gigabyte GA-8IPE1000/GA-8IPE1000-L Recommended Memory: http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/conf...submit1=Search Kingston KVR800D2N6/1G Specs: http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/conf...00D2N6/1G&id=1 Also check the FSB speed for your Intel Processor Motherboard manual (Page 55), BIOS setting = Memory Frequency For [Auto] -- JS http://www.pagestart.com "Pool" wrote in message ...

And yet, the memory module itself, has this for a label 1GB DDR PC-3200 CT1GD64SH08BL-5T At least the first part of that, is consistent with DDR PC3200 memory. The same type as the Elixir 256MB DDR400, CL3 PC3200U-30330. I'm not able to find a match on the "CT1GD64SH08BL-5T" string. If I look at a stick of Kingston "Valueram", it looks like this. This is unbuffered PC3200 DDR memory, a 184 pin DIMM. There are no small buffering chips in the middle of the module. There are eight chips per side, because the module doesn't have ECC protection via a ninth memory chip. Notice the part number, begins with "KVR", not "CT". http://images17.newegg.com/is/image/newegg/20-141-307-S02?$S640W$ This Crucial brand memory, begins with a CT part number. http://c1.neweggimages.com/NeweggIma...148-089-02.jpg You'll notice in this example, the Crucial part number is CT12864Z40B. The 128x64 is 128 million locations by 8 bytes wide, for a total of 1GB of memory. So the "12864" translated to 1GB. The letters on the end, appear to help identify the memory family (SDRAM, DDR, DDR2, DDR3) and the speed grade. http://www.provantage.com/crucial-te...b~7CIAL5AH.htm So to start, I would look carefully again, at the label on the RAM. A Crucial memory, is unlikely to ship in a Kingston box :-) This is registered DDR memory. If you bought this, it won't work in an 865PE chipset motherboard. This is used for server computers. The extra funny chips in the center of the module, tell me this is registered. the funny chips in the center, are smaller than a regular memory chip. There are two register chips, and a clock phase locked loop chip. These modules have nine memory chips per side, meaning they also support ECC error protection. So the module is actually registered ECC PC3200 server memory. They're quite different looking, than the eight chip unbuffered UDIMM discusses first. These would be RDIMM modules, where the R stands for Registered. http://c1.neweggimages.com/NeweggIma...145-310-04.jpg http://c1.neweggimages.com/NeweggIma...145-310-05.jpg Paul |
