Hello

I just recently bought 2xG.SKILL 4GB rams(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231307) and my motherboard is http://www.asrock.com/mb/intel/g41c-gs/.When I install the rams my monitor goes black so it could be a compatibility issue.I have looked up my motherboard's QVL (http://www.asrock.com/mb/memory/G41C-GS.pdf why didnt I do that beforehand duhhh) and the rams werent there.I have also looked up ways to fix that including inserting only one ram to the desktop and putting back the old rams.So I am wondering if there's a slight possibility that the rams are compatible?If no,do you have any suggestion about a new motherboard?

P.S My old rams were a kingston kvr800d2n6/2g and a kingston kvr800d2n5/1g.
P.S.2 Thanks in advance :)
 
Solution
you have the latest bios for the motherboard?

1.30 10/7/2013 Instant Flash 665.77KB Improve memory compatibility.

this version fixed some memory issues yours could be on the list of fixes?
I think you might be right and be the BIOS.When I update the BIOS through the Instant Flash it says install complete and press any keys to reboot.When I reboot it shows me a CMOS checksum error.If I press F1 and go with the defaults I still get a black screen when putting the new ram
 
reboot it and press DELETE button on keyboard to enter in bios screen at the really beginning of system start
check in the bios if everythings is ok and hardwares are recognized
maybe its necessary to do somes settings , but i do not know? because i do not have the screen in my face
 

I think everything is alright.The CMOS checksum bad error is showed only after every BIOS update,if I restart the pc it runs smoothly.
