Comments for Upgrade Ram turns computer consently rebooting itself. Average Rating Click here to add your own comments

Feb 10, 2011 Rating Memory by: Support Hello Mary, Researching your computer on Kingston memory (www.kingston.com) shows no upgrade path to higher or faster memory that you bought, the web site shows only PC 2700 and the largest is 1 Gig. Try this: Power down the computer, remove the power cord. Put the orginal memory back in the slots they came out of, insure they are seated all the way in the slots, the little locks on the end of the memory module will 'click' when the module is pressed in to the slot. Put the cover back on and power it up, go in to the BIOS settings and then save the settings. This will insure the motherboard reconizes and intalizes the memory that is in the slots. Let the computer start. Did that stop the computer from rebooting? When it reboots do you get any error codes on the screen or just a restart? Did the memory damage something on the motherboard? Unknown, it is possible that the faster memory damgaged the chip set that controls the memory, but is unlikly. If the computer comes back up fine, take the memory back to where you bought it, I would suggest you talk to the manager/owner and tell them that the memory you bought (under recommendation of an employee) was the wrong memory and that you machine can not use anything besides PC 2700 memory. Hope this helps...
