check the ram is seated properly
if your adding to your current ram do they have the same timings

reopen your case and make sure all cards and cables are plugged in properly. Its very easy to knock stuff loose when installing ram.

If that does not help, tell what ram you purchase and your computers make and model or if you built it, what motherboard.

MOBO: Intel D845GEBV2
RAM: CEON 1GB DDR 400Mhz CL3
Q:
What if I won't to change the one thats in side the machine with the new one ?

check what the bios beeps says is wrong here
www.bioscentral.com
when fitting ram make sure it is seated don't rely on the clips clicking over as it is not always seated
it still boots with the old ram in then the ram may not be compatible with one another

hotonice · 12-07-2007, 05:17 AM

ok i will check thanx

hotonice · 12-07-2007, 06:15 AM

3 short beeps = A memory failure has occurred in the first 64K of RAM. The RAM IC is probably bad
what is RAM IC ?

dai · 12-07-2007, 06:38 AM
