I have bought some new type SDRAM (256Mb, 133, NCP) although seller
told me it wouldn't work on pre-2001 motherboards (at that time I didn't know mobo was made in 2000). so it doesn't work. windows crashes on boot with blue screen and BIOS doesn't show text (!), only colored boxes ![]() I was told by salesman it would work at least as 128Mb. Since it doesn't, does it mean SDRAM is broken? I got some guarantee, and hopefully they will give me new one but it will be of the same type ![]() If that new module works as 128Mb, is it safe to use it? (computer is online 24/7) BTW, I have only two slots and here are some details of my system, just in case it helps you to help me ![]() CPU-Z Report ------------------------------------ CPU-Z version 1.26.
