I had 2GB in my computer (2x 1GB), then I decided to add 4GB (2x 2GB), but when I added the chips it wouldn't start. I replaced the 1GB chips for the 2GB ones and it works, I also tried adding 1 GB chip to the 2x 2GB and nothing. It's either 2x1 or 2x2. I updated BIOS to F13 but still same...
I have the G.Skill DDR2 1066 4GB (2x2GB) RAM modules. What I was wondering is whether I can add another 2GB of the same RAM to get it up to 6.
