Black screen after installing RAM
Hello, I have a 512mg in my DIMM1 and I just installed a 512mb drr3200 in my DIMM2 and after I reboted, it caused my screen to go black. I removed the new ram and restarted and it loaed back to normal. Now I went online and did some reading and reset my bios/cmos by removing the watch battery from the mobo. Then I reset it and it asked for my date and then started up fine. So this time, I reinstalled the second ram into the DIMM2 and also removed the watch battery, reinstalled the watch battery and restarted, now it's just the black screen, tried switching out the new ram and nothing, still black screen....
here are my specs from belarc
