Hi there, need help.

I have a Intel DH55PJ motherboard running on Intel's i3 processor. I had the original Kingston 2GB 1333 RAM replaced as it broke (gave the three beeps code of death, tried another port still the same)

Initially bought a Kingston 4GB 1333 to replace it, went through BIOS fine but once it tried loading Windows 7, it just reboots. Tried formatting using the Windows Installer but same result, at times BSOD. Tried running Windows memory test, but stops at 00% right away. Found out through this forum that Kingston no longer builds memory to be compatible with the motherboard.

Replaced the RAM with a Zeppelin 4GB 1333 memory as well, same error messages.

Is there something with the new RAMs or my Motherboard is just old? Will a BIOS upgrade help? will changing the PC timing and voltages work?

Thanks for answers
