My dads old Dell 4100. He had 1 stick of sdram 256MB. He bought another stick to give him 512. After he installed it, the computer would not bood. Now I have his box.
When I take both sticks out I get the three beeps, but no combination of the two sticks will boot the machine. I tried any combination of memory and slots to no avail.
I tried both memory sticks in another machine and they where recognized. Also old memory stick from other machine gave same results in dads 4100.
I pulled the cmos pin and placed in the other pins, then put it back. Still no luck with any combination of the three memory modules I have.
I pulled the battery from mobo then put in back still same result only way for box to beep is with no memory.
Anything else to try ?
