[My system does not boot up with the new memory I just bought. What do I do?]
First, you need to check the motherboard user’s manual and see if you have bought the correct memory type. For example, Intel 875/865 chipset based motherboard does not take ECC registered DDR RAM. If the memory type is correct, please look up motherboard qualification guide for compatibility. If the memory is compatible with your motherboard, please try to reset CMOS and let motherboard read memory settings from SPD. If the system still fails to boot, please contact technical support for any help.
