After upgrade ram, iMac start 3 beeps

Hi guys, I try to improve my ram from 8G to 32G with the new memory locations.

It went very well. I was put in place the RAM and it worked very well.

I put my PC on sleep, and then I wake up with strange beeps. I had to stop. I try to start it again, only of the white screen with 3 beeps again.

I try different combinations for the positions of machines slot (2 first sites works well) if I put memory on the slot 3 or 4, it's getting the beep, no matter what.

Please let me know for your solution.

3 beeps mean you have Ram problems:

is not well mounted in the mac,

or if you have the plug incorrectly installed.

Remove the new Ram, restart.

Then, check the specs.

    Hello

    I think that simply there is a compatibility problem between the memory modules.
    5 short beeps that appear during POST is a common signal that appears if an error has been detected.

    I think you simply test the different memory modules.

  • Satellite A660 - 10 X - no boot after upgrading RAM 8 GB, but 4 GB + 2 GB only

    Hello

    Today I bought two sticks of Kingston 4 GB DDR3 1066 MHz CL7 and I'm trying to replace my 2 GB ones, but something is wrong.

    If I put two sticks of 4 GB laptop does not start. I have the latest version of the BIOS (1.80). I have restored the default settings after upgrade.

    But it's quite strange, because if I put a strip of 4 GB and a 2 GB stick system starts and everything is fine (with memtest86 + too). But there is still one thing: 4 GB stick should be rolled in the dock before, above second, 2 GB module. If I reverse cell phone memory will not start again.

    Is - everyone knows how to solve my problem? Is this a BIOS problem? BIOS version which A660 takes in charge the amount of 8 GB of RAM with no problems? I can downgrade from the BIOS, because I don't know if Toshiba help update.

    Thanks in advance.

    Is this exact module the same 4 GB RAM listed on THIS page?

    steps to follow:

    1. I tried with 1 socket by using only a RAM, screen black

    2. I tried with 2 socket using RAM only one with the same RAM step 1, screen black

    3. I tried step 1 and 2 using the other RAM, screen black

    now here it gets interesting

    4 tried 1 socket using Original/factory RAM, screen black

    5 tried 2 socket using Original/factory RAM, screen black

    6. tried without any RAM at all, looks like a lack of RAM, screen black

    Now, to each measure adopted, I must say that the screen sound not only not showing things, but its totally black as it does at all, until the system starts normally. !

  • How upgrade to 64 bit Win 7 after upgrade Ram 6 GB on 3250br Pavilion DM1?

    I m going to upgrade 6 GB memory on my Pavilion DM1 3250br. Although windows indicate it is 64-bit capable windows anytime update installed 32-bit (because it has less than 2 GB available).

    1. How should you proceed to upgrade to 64-bit after upgrade memory? I don't have a system disk, only the suplyed key home premium by HP.

    2 HP has 64-bit for all devices drivers? They are in D: recovery drive or I´ll need to download the upgrade?

    3. any information you want to give.

    Best regards

    Hi, Eduardo:

    You can try it.

    I know it works if you have a retail upgrade key which means that it is good for 32 or 64 bit.

    I don't know an ISO file that you get off the internet is an OEM file.

    If this is the case, it will not work. If this isn't the case, I doubt it will be.

    I have dealt only with the installations of Windows 7 using OEM disks or retail upgrade.

    Basically, the key that you use must be the same as the installation disc.

    OEM disc / ISO good with the key on the bottom of your portable forest 32 or 64 OEM.

    Plenty of retail disc / ISO only good with the full commercial product key, you get the box or the e-mail sent to you - 32 or 64 bit.

    The retail upgrade disc / ISO only good with the retail upgrade key, you get in the box or the e-mail sent to you - 32 or 64-bit.

    Upgrade Express disc / ISO only good with the upgrade retail or upgrade Express key - 32 or 64-bit if you have a disk.

    I used a disk of 64 bit Vista Business anytime upgrade to upgrade Vista Home Premium 64 bit update, and I was able to use the key from Vista Business 32 bit provided with the 32-bit disk (I had a 32-bit Vista Business retail box update but they come only with discs of 32 bits at the time and you had to order a CD of) 64-bit and pay $10. You can't even not the disks in 64-bit vista to MS.

    Hope this helps,

  • Satellite P200D-130 does not start after upgrading RAM

    Hi, I just upgraded the RAM on my P200D 130 but it does not start after that.
    I removed the 2 Hynix 1 GB PC2-5200 and put in 2 SO Kingston DDR2 2 GB PC667 (should be the same as PC2-5200).
    Post-market nothing happens, light power control is turned on, I him stays CD drive but screen black, no beeps.

    I put one of the 1 GB modules, it starts normally, then I tried a 1 GB into the lower slot module and a 2 GB module in the top slot and it works.
    I tried a single 2 GB module in each slot, even in the form of 2 2 GB modules.

    What could be the reason, better: what would be the solution to ensure that the modules of 2 x 2 GB to work?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello!

    I think that both modules are not compatible to the laptop.
    Normally you can upgrade your laptop to 4 GB. Look in the user manual.

    The RAM, you should bring the computer dealer and request a new one. More buy modules with the same specifications and dimensions. Try buying RAM with the same specs as before.

    Good bye

  • Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC0E) does not start after upgrading RAM

    Hello

    I hope someone can help me here, I recently bought a Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC0E) and decided to upgrade the RAM. I bought a stick of 512 MB of curries with the following specifications: DDR PC2700 200-pin 333 Mhz SODIMM (64 x 64).

    However, the first problem I encountered was an alignment problem. A little effort and handling solved this, but after you insert the RAM into the available slot, the computer laptop wouldn't boot, and instead, I had the flashing sequence on the LED from 2,3,3.

    I was told it might be a problem matching, then tried to remove the original RAM and booting with just the new stick, still the same error. I tried it in the slots and still no joy. It starts very well with the original 256 MB of RAM, but refuses to take the new RAM.

    Are there any known issues? Can anyone suggest something that I can do wrong? I followed the usual steps of upgrade to remove all power cables and the battery before the upgrade, but still no joy.

    Hoping that someone is able to help!

    Hi James

    You simply have bad memory modules and is not a compatible uses.

    > the first problem I encountered was an alignment problem. A little effort and handling solved this,

    This should not happen! The right modules can be inserted without any problem of alignment!
    Handling can damage the module!

    In my opinion, you should use another and supported the RAM module.

    To my knowledge, you can use the PA3512U-1M1G (DDR2-667 1 GB Memory Kit) or (PA3411U-2M1G) DDR2-533 1 GB
    The two should be compatible.

  • End of 2009 does not start after upgrading RAM

    Just installed 8 GB of RAM from OWC and 240 GB SSD from OWC. At startup, the screen stayed black, the Mac mini beeps (several times), the LED blinked.

    I reversed the positions of chip RAM - same result.

    I replaced the new RAM with the RAM (2x2gb) original. The machine starts perfectly.

    The RAM was purchased from OWC as a Mac Mini 3,1 end 2009 package upgrade that many have commented as works perfectly. My machine doesn't have an update of the firmware. Where from here, please?

    Examine the contacts of the OWC RAM. Compare with work/original RAM.

    Try just a stick of the OWC in each slot and see if a stick is going to work, and in what locations.

    Maybe yo receive a bad stick (or two).

    You can call OWC when available Monday

    I bought the 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) OWC for my Mini end 2009 and it worked without problem.

  • Satellite L670-1EE does not start after upgrading RAM 4 GB to 8 GB

    I'm trying to upgrade the RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB. If I replace two 2 GB of 2 modules of 4 GB modules, the BIOS (which is the most recent) realize the 8 GB, but does not start at startup. There is just the white cursor blinking not.

    When I put in the 1 4 GB module and 1 2 GB module the system starts without a problem and has 6 GB. I checked the two 4 GB modules, they work in any combination, but not when both are installed together.

    I couldn't find any rider or the settings of the bios for the RAM...

    Any idea?

    Thanks in advance for the help

    The last plausible explanation is that both modules are ok, but not compatible with each other.
    The laptop can be upgraded up to 8 GB of RAM. This should not be a problem since the unit is supported by the Chipset Mobile Intel HM55 Express.

    So I think that you need to replace the modules Kingston modules are great and work without problem.

    Any ideas how to fix?

    Notepad starts successfully by using the old modules?
    If Yes, then your problem are the new inserted memory modules.
    Eventually, they are not fully compatible or defective.

    I upgraded my laptop with the modules of RAM 8 GB some time ago and I used Kingston modules.
    They are more expensive but Kingston provide good quality modules and they work great.

    Less expensive modules can cause this kind of problem!

    If the computer laptop doesn't boot then there is a great chance that the RAM is either not compatible or it s faulty.

  • Re: Smoker L30-10 X PSL33E does not start after upgrading RAM

    Hello

    I have a problem with my laptop.
    It has 1024 MB of RAM (2 x 512), but it wasn't enough, so I decided to update to 2048 MB (2 x 1024).

    I bought two modules and my computer does not start after changing them.
    It was only a screen black (same BIOS has not started). I tried another combination of installation of memory modules RAM.
    2 x 1024 - did not work
    1 x 1024 - did not work
    1 x 1024 + 1 x 512 - working but not properly.

    BIOS find that I only 896 MB (1024-128 for the video card)
    I said OK. Let's see what will show windows. He was also 896 MB.
    I launched CPU - Z and it shows that the total size of memory is 1536 MB (medium detect both modules).
    I found that CPU - Z detect 1 module 1 024 MB and 512 MB secondary, but the BIOS detect only 1024 MB 1536. How is that possible?

    I have fought, is that my BIOS is old, then I update the toshiba Web site form most recent version, but the problem persists.
    Please someboy help me and tell what to do.

    PS. the Modules are new and work correctly.
    They have been tested.

    Hello

    Have you used two identical RAM modules?

    What kind of modules did you use?

    In my view, that the problem is related to the new, inserted modules.
    There must be something wrong with the modules or modules are not completely compatible if the laptop can not boot after installation.

    According to a few pages of the book handles the DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM modules.

    Did you use these modules?

    The screen never shows anything... it just stops. Several attempts donnГ the same result. I put in one.

    There could be only one explanation.
    The new RAM modules are not compatible, or there is a power outage!

    I guess that the laptop starts properly using older modules. Am I wrong?
