Re: RAM detected by BIOS but not by Windows after laptop upgrade

Hi,

Just a few things to try...

1. Remove the new inserted module. (PC2100 RAM)
2. Boot and check if BIOS and Windows recognize the PC2700 512MB RAM.
3. Power OFF
4. Move the PC2700 512MB RAM into the other slot.
5. Do step 2 again.

If PC2700 512MB RAM is recognized in both slots, remove and replace with the PC2100 512MB RAM. Do the steps again using the PC2100 RAM.

Post back what you find out.
