Toshiba ram

Hello,
I have installed two 1GB modules in my M50 laptop, and now nothing works.
All I get is a blank screen and a whistling noise.
How can I get into th BIOS on this machine?
Regards,
Sanyi

Hi,

Did you ensure that the memory was compatible with your motherboard before you installed them? If you didn't, there's a good chance you have purchased the wrong RAM for your motherboard. What motherboard do you have and which RAM did you purchase?

Regards.

Look on Crucial's site at the RAM configurator for the correct RAM.
Or contact Toshiba.
