btw, what do you mean the PC came up in 'stand by' mode....Normally when you
have a screw up with RAM the machine won't boot. or it just won't show the
RAM...Stand-by, sounds like a Windows issue to me...the key is, when your
system boots, can you see the added memory showing up in the memory count
down?? have your tried removing the original DIMM and just installing the
new one?? It could be a conflict between the 2 different memory sticks??
