[SOLVED] Windows won't boot after changing ram

[George Avrabos]

I have an Elpida 4GB 2Rx8 PC3-10600S-9-10-F2 DDR3 and 1333MHz. I want to change my laptop's previous RAM which is a Samsung
2GB 1Rx16 PC3L-12800S-11-13-C3 DDR3 and 1333MHz as well. However, whenever I do that, windows won't boot up. The mother board is
an ACLU9/ACLU0 NM-A311. I don't get what the problem is, since it seems that the RAM is compatible with this motherboard.

Visit two or three RAM manufacturer's websites and look for RAM compatible with your laptop.

You should be able to find a consensus as to what specific RAM specs and configurations will work in the laptop.

Laptop Manual:

Do verify that I found the correct motherboard manual.

RAM specs are provided on physically numbered Pages 27 & 28.

Details matter so read all the notes and fine print.
