Okay, I got 512MB RAM installed into my computer today, to make it a total of 1024MB.
Anyway, my computer seems to restart if I open certain programs or go to certain websites now.
Anyone know what is wrong?

I Think its the ram,
Ive read plenty of websites about this and the problem may be that your ram is overheating,
Did the ram you bought match the specs of your PC?.

Something similar happened to me before when I installed memory and stuff. I don't remember exactly what happened, but once I took it out, it worked normally again.

The RAM I bought is the exact same type of RAM already in my computer.
Do you know if I can fix this without taking it somewhere? I already took it to this Computer Shop that has helped us in the past, they're the ones who installed it.

- try to boot and use your PC only with your new 512. - try to swith both RAM and test with 1024 that way. - there can be a problem with the speed (166 or 200) in the CMOS/BIOS setup. With double faced RAM, 200 can be wrong, try 166 ==> check on some us websites because a wrong change at that place can really mess up the PC  - simply ask the store about this. After trying with only the new RAM you bought. |
