    System restarts with upgrade to 2GB

    Got a 2x1GB Kingston Value RAM set at 667MHz today. They work fine together, but not when I add in my old 2x512 set. So I guess I'll just replace the old with the new. No big deal. Thanks for your help.

    System restarts with upgrade to 2GB

    Thanks for the response. I tried the 1024 and one 512 in several configurations and still get the restarts. I'm currently running on just the 1024 with no problems. The first one I bought was the Corsair. When I first had the problem, I brought it back and they ran Memtest on it with no problems...

    System restarts with upgrade to 2GB

    I am befuddled. I am trying to upgrade to 2GB, and every new module I have installed makes my system restart. I currently run 2x512 DDR2-4200s in Slot 0 of Channels A & B on an Intel DG965RYCK. I am adding a new single 1GB stick at the same speed and voltage (MB only takes 1.8V). I have tried...

    New core duo system with no display?!

    I seem to be having a similar problem, though I also have a problem with my power switches not working. Everything boots when I plug in the system with the PSU turned on even before I touch the front panel switches. Then after it's all on, the front panel switches don't respond. The front panel...

    New system DOA?

    Update. I got a Raidmax Volcano 630W that seems to have solved my power problem. The case LEDs no longer blink and everything stays powered up. However, it powers up when I turn the PSU on, before I even touch the power switch, nothing boots, and the front panel switches don't respond even after...

    New system DOA?

    Ok, so PSU is the consensus. If I get it from my local Fry's, what exactly should I look for? I do plan to get an GPU probably first half of next year, but nothing SLI or Crossfire. It looks like the two Antecs you recommended have 16 and 19A on the 12V. Is that the primary number I should be...

    New system DOA?

    Wow, I wasn't expecting so many responses so quickly. I'll try the screwdriver connection test later when I have some time, but I wanted to clear up some other issues that were raised. The power supply that came with the case is 350w. I've tried unplugging all drives but the boot (250), but no...
