No matter what I've tried, I cannot get this RAM to work. When I turn my computer on, the fans come on, but the unit itself won't even POST. It just sits there beeping over and over. I've tried everything I know to do, including taking out the old RAM, trying the new RAM in different slots, switching out my video card, loading up the BIOS and changing all of its settings to fail-safe. The RAM itself is fine, because I tried it in a friends computer and it booted up with no problems. The only difference between this RAM and the ram I'm running now is the size. Anyone have any suggestions?
