Ram upgrade problems/nightmares on MS-6340

Hi,
story so far: I have a 6340 ver:1 motherboard (it says so on my Motherboard) with two 128 MB sticks of RAM. I recently got a 512MB stick - its rated 64M x 64 - I used the Crucial.com scan to tell me what memory to use (shown below). The crucial scan showed my m/b as being 6340M, but I assume they are the same.
Crucial CT64M64S4D7E 512MB:
SDRAM, PC133 • CL=2 • Unbuffered • Non-parity • 133MHz • 3.3V • 64Meg x 64
I can't get the sytem to respond with the new 512 MB stick in it.
My m/b details are shown here:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=131
This states, "Supports a maximum memory size of 1GB (32M x 8)."
QUESTION 1: I take it this means the 64M x 64 512MB stick that Crucial recommended does not work on my system?
QUESTION 2: I think I get the 32M x 8 concept. For a double sided (DS) stick, this means 32M x 8 x 2 = 512 MB. OK.
What I dont get is the Crucial stick with what I assume is essentially 64M x 8 (I assume 8, since 8 chips on each side). Its DS, therefore 64M x 8 x 2 = 1024 MB. The Crucial is a 512 MB stick, so can someone please tell me what is wrong with my 'logic' here?
Phew! I've resisted all urges to swear so far. Replies appreciated.

dont think your board is the M
Infact i think its an oem board if you look back through posts here
evasham and other oems use it

  • Lenovo G40 ~ 70 ram upgrade problem

    I bought a lenovo G40 ~ 70 laptop and I wanted to upgrade my ram.It contains 4gb ram and I wanted to upgrade it to 8gb .What type of ram card should I buy and after the upgrade will my computer have problems? thank you.

    Hi Ayato,
    Welcome to the Forums  
    As per the query we understood that you are looking for RAM upgrade for your Lenovo G40-70 laptop.
    As per the specification of this model , the maximum memory supported by this model is upto 16GB DDR3L 1600Mhz.Hence I would suggest you to look into DDR3L RAM as the RAM slots in the laptop will only support the same. And "L" in DDR3L refers to low voltage.
    Click here for the model specification.
    Hope this helps. Do post back if the issue persists.
    Best regards,

  • IMac 27" Juli 2010 Model, i7 2,93 RAm Upgrade Problem

    Hi,
    after running my brand new iMac 27 for a few days without any problems, I wanted to upgraded the RAM to 12 GB total, having purchased two 4 GB Samsung Mac certified RAMs from a dealer already.
    I opened the thing and put the 4 GB banks into the two free slots closest to the display. After rebooting, I had to realise that the Mac only recognized 6 GB of RAM total! One 4 GB piece and one of the original 2 GB Apple ones, indicating that the other two banks were empty?¿ I took out the RAM again and was back to 4 GB of original RAM.
    Now I took out all the RAM and stuck the two 4 GB pieces into the banks that the original RAMs were in. Rebootet the machine and voila, I had 8 GB of RAM. Opened the machine up one more time and stuck the original Apple RAM in the two remaining slots and after rebooting, I had the full 12 GB of RAM.
    Now...is that the way it is supposed to be? And if, why would there be no mentioning of that behaviour in the manual? I have bought lots of Apple certified RAM from that dealer in the last ten years and stuck that into my other Macs and never had such a problem.
    I just want to get some feedback, that if it works now, I am fine. Otherwise I could return the RAM and have them send me some in exchange.
    The iMac so far is running just fine with the 12 GB of RAM.
    Some input would beappreciated, thanks!
    Peter
    PS: I would call Apple support to ask, but my experience with them is, that they will just refer my to the RAm dealer, since it was not bought at the Apple store.

    Hi Roger,
    well, my problem ist, that inserting the new 2x4 GB RAM modules in the two remaining slots of the iMac should have worked just fine and given me 12 GB of RAM. But it only showed 6 Gb of RAM and two empty slots, which weren't empty!
    Swapping the original Apple RAM into the other two slots and using the Apple RAM slots for the new 2x4 GB RAM modules was the only way to get the iMac to give me the expected 12 GB of RAM.
    So, I am still wondering, if there is a problem with the new RAM modules? It does not state in the manual, that 4 GB modules would have to be inserted in a particular slot for them to be recognized fully. It just says to stick them in the empty slots.
    I knnow, it maybe a no brainer, since all seems to work fine now, but that Mac wasn't all that cheap and I don't want to risk anything.
    Cheers

  • DV6-3225dx RAM UPGRADE problem

    The DV6 I bought 2 years ago has 2x2GB Samsung built-in memory, and I want to upgrade to 8GB to use virtual machines. I bought 2x4GB 1333 Mhz Kingston memory, installed them and now the problem comes. Windows boot up, but it is frozen for a while (~3sec) then restart when the logo boot screen appears. BIOS can recognizes the new RAMs. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate. I came back to the store where I bought these memory, asked them to check, and they are working very well. I asked them to restock these RAM and bought 2 new Patriot memory. The problem is still there. Restock again and keeps using old RAMs.  
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    To verify, does the problem go away if you use the original two sticks of RAM the system came with?
    Chasing down the HP part number from page 60 of this guide, the HP part number for the 4GB stick of RAM for this system is 641369-001.  Entering the listed part number from the guide at partsurfer.hp.com indicates that 641369-001 is the replacement 4GB RAM module.  Currently, that one stick of RAM is ~$52 USD when ordering from HP.  This same memory appears to be a little cheaper from CostCentral.  The stock ram was 1333, but using 1600 memory won't cause any harm as the motherboard will just downclock the RAM to 1333.  
    Since a problem is present using third party RAM, I would recommend using memory that matches the part number listed from HP to ensure compatibility.  The reason for this is that there are many specifications for RAM that are not listed in the documentation, so using HP RAM would ensure it is compatible with that particular system.  You could run the start-up test (power it on and press F2 about once a second) to ensure the hardware is functional.  Since it works with the stock RAM, it seems that the base hardware is fine.

  • Ram upgrade problem!

    For: Toshiba Satellite L675D-S7047
    Upgrade from 4GB to 8GB.
    Both sticks are good (memtest pass) They are the 8 block ram sticks. If I leave 1 2GB in and put a 4GB it will boot. if I put in both 4GB sticks it will not boot. I did a bios update.
    Any ideas?
    Solved!

    Satellite L675D-S7047
    It's an old story. If you surf the forums here, you'll find the same problem mentioned often. Because Toshiba machines are sensitive to specs, modules are often incompatible. Unless you buy the memory from Toshiba or the best memory made by Kingston, it's a crap shoot. Often they are compatible, but sometimes they are a bit out of spec.

  • HP G70-250CA 8GB RAM upgrade problem

    I am trying to upgrade my HP G70-250CA from 6GB of RAM to 8GB, but cannot get it to work.
    It is currently running fine with 6GB of RAM, configured as one 4GB and one 2GB stick. I have purchased a second 4GB stick. When I replace the 2GB stick with the second 4GB stick, the system does not boot. All I see at startup is a black screen -- it does not even show the BIOS splash screen.
    Either one of the 4GB sticks works fine by itself, I tested them both, and the current configuration of 6GB works fine too. From my reading, this system should be able to support 8GB of RAM.
    Any ideas what the problem might be, or further steps I could use to diagnose?

  • IMac RAM upgrade - Problem with PC2-6400S-666?

    Hi, everyone -
    I updgraded my iMac5,1 (according to specs found here) to 3GB RAM. Ordered the modules from Other World Computing. After installing the RAM (and reseating it numerous times) I received repeated kernel panics. (The Mac would "see" the memory as 3GB, and would run fine for a few hours, then kernel panic.)g
    I have isolated the problem to the 1GB module that OWC sent me: If I replace the OEM memory that came with the Mac, it runs fine. If I run it with just the 2GB module from OWC, it runs fine. Whenever I install the 1GB module, I run into trouble.
    During this process, I noticed that OWC had shipped me a 2GB module (OWC-branded, PC5300 DDR2 667MHz 200 Pin, which matches the Apple-recommended spec), but the 1GB module is (Samsung) 2Rx16 PC2-6400S-666-12-A3.
    OWC is trying to tell me that this Samsung module - which they substituted because they were apparently out of stock on the 1GB OWC PC5300 modules like I ordered - has firmware that will enable it to work with my machine, but obviously for whatever reason it does not. Perhaps it is simply defective, but I am trying to get them to send me a 1GB module that matches the 2GB module (OWC, PC5300, etc) just because I am more comfortable having the modules be the same spec. (Plus, that's what I ordered; a 3GB kit that was supposed to include all one type of memory.)
    Has anyone experienced problems running PC2-6400S memory in their iMac? And do you think I am being reasonable to try and insist that they send me a 1GB module that is exactly the same type as the 2GB module? (Doesn't that theoretically minimize potential problems?)
    I have usually had pretty good experiences with OWC, but this has been frustrating (they have also been slow in responding to me, which is disappointing.)
    Thank you for any advice or insights!
    Christina

    I would absolutely insist that they exchange the incorrect stick and ship what you ordered. They are usually very good, but maybe you just got a rep who was not in the best mood? In any case, at this point, having a trail in writing would be good, so send them an email and politely but firmly insist on the correct module.

  • K8N NEO FSR MS7030 & ram upgrade problem

    Hello all, i am new here and sorry in advance for my not so bad english.
    Last week i bought 1gb of DDR400 PC3200 of ram, before that i had only 2 x 512 DDR400 PC3200 of ram, and everything was running fine since june 2005.
    But voila, i wanted 2Gb to be able to play battlefield2 at 1280x1024 with all settings on high, so i bought this 1Gb module, it is the same "brand" , LDLC, but i know for sure they are not manufacturing it themselves, but the SPD reports the same settings for the 3 modules, 2.5-3-3-8.
    The problem is that i experiment strange "lags" in battlefield2, strange because i have 70FPS average, but the gameplay is choppy, for exemple if i turn around fastly, the game freezes for microseconds but its very annoying, other than that, i get random errors in other games or programs, like cs source, firefox, winamp, photoshop, star wars battlefront2 etc...
    I tested the 1Gb module alone one full night with memtest86 on a boot cd and it reported no errors.
    I know my PSU could be a little short, but when i remove the 1Gb module, everything runs fine like it always did.
    Do you think i should raise the mem voltage ? or do you think that voltage rail for the mem is too short with this PSU ?
    Maybe i should buy a better PSU...
    The thing is all 3 mem modules are double sided (not sure of that, is single sided mem module completely empty on one side ?), and if i take a look at the MSI recommandations, its not recommanded to put 3 Double at 400mhz, but when i reduce the mem frequency from 200 to 166, its all the same, i get the same errors, and the gameplay in battlefield is still unplayable, however MSI recommands putting 3 double only at 333mhz...
    I don't know what to think.
    Any help will be gladly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Yes i have 4 usb 2.0 devices connected full time, logitech mx510 mouse, keyboard ideazon zboard, netgear dg632 modem/router(its own power source) and a dual analog 3 thrustmaster gaming pad, do you think this can be a potential PSU sucker ?
    Also i did the changes over the ram voltage and the timings(2,65 and 2,5-5-5-8 2T), but the lags where still in battlefield2, and i played ~30min of prince of persia : warrior within and i got 2 errors(back to desktop).
    Did you see the MSI recommandations for ram settings with this mbd ? They say you can't put 3 double sided modules at 400mhz, only at 333mhz, maybe this is why when i load the failsafe settings in the bios the ram is automatically at 166-333 ? what do you think of that. But the strange thing is that even at 333mhz there is still errors and choppy gameplay in bf2.
    I know my PSU looks short, but without this 1Gb module, everything runs fine, do you think this module only can mess up the PSU ?
    I bought the 6800 GS AGP one month ago and i didnt think my PSU could handle it but it did 

  • Late 2008 Macbook 8gb Ram Upgrade Problem

    I've read thousands of posts about how to identify if my Macbook aluminium unibody late 2008 can run with 8 gb of ram. I decided to buy two 4gb Ddr3 1066 Mhz from Corsair by reading the post from OWC (http://blog.macsales.com/9102-secret-firmware-lets-late-08-macbooks-use-8gb) As soon as i booted the system with 8gb it crashed and it was impossible to get it work. My Macbooks Model ID is Macbook 5.1 and has a Boot ROM version MB51.007D.B03, running on Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.1 (12B19). I tried to leave one the old ram in one slot (1gb) and the new one in the other slot (4gb) and it worked perfectly with  5gb Ram discarting the problem that the new Ram could have failures. Im really confused and i hope to get some help to get this working.

    Test using only one of the new RAM modules (no other RAM). Then test with the other new module. This will tell you which (if any) of them is defective. Contact the seller. OWC is very good about replacing RAM that is proven defective.
    Best of luck.

  • P45 Platinum RAM Upgrade Problem !!!! NEED HELP PLZ !!!

  • Compaq Presario C303NR Doesn't Completely Start-up after New RAM Upgrade

    Hello Paul,
    This is Tammy. I finally made time this morning to upgrade the ram in my laptop, model C303nr. And, I'm in desparate need of help because something went horribly wrong.
    The laptop boots up to my desktop, but then I get nothing but moving vertical lines, much like tv snow, but more structured. I've taken the new memory out a couple of times and tried to re-seated it, but I get the same results. Moreover, when I tried to put the old memory back in, the exact same thing happens. Have I completely broken my laptop?
    Can you or someone out there please help me. This is my first attempt to do something like this and I feel absolutely heartsick over the results.
    Clinging to hope for a fix,
    Tammy
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi Paul,
    After the other tech responded by asking me to connect the laptop to an external monitor to check the video card, I decided to take another go at the ram first. Note: My only external monitor is packed knee-deep in a storage room and would have been a nightmare to unearth, so going toe-to-toe again with the ram seemed considerably less challenging at that point.
    I have a small hand-held vac that I use only for blowing dust off of figurines, so I pulled it out and blew the inside of the laptop out as best I could without taking the entire bottom cover off. Then I blew the old ram off for good measure. After I re-installed the old ram, the laptop booted and the screen about windows not shutting down properly came up. (Note: Because of my earlier problem with the ram, I had to do a hard shut-down.) Safe-mode was one of my options, so I chose it. After fully booting into safe-mode everything appeared okay... no vertical, moving, snowy lines. I shut the laptop down and then started it again in normal mode. (Note: Didn't use restart. Did it the long way.) The laptop booted fine again.
    Somewhat encouraged, I decided to take a chance on the new ram. So I blew it off for good measure too and installed one stick. Restarted and everything worked just fine. Shut it down and started it again. Everything still okay. Blew the second stick off,  installed it, and restarted the laptop... fully expecting something to go wrong here. Nothing did. Shut the laptop down and started it again. All surprisingly okay. I hadn't used this laptop since our previous modem/router went out, so I had to set-up wireless connection. All remained okay... and appears to still be okay. Currently running, though it is not the one I am typing this message with.
    In summary, the only thing I can figure out is that I inadvertently introduced dust into either the ram seat or onto the ram itself. Or, that in spite of the ram appearing well seated to a novice, it wasn't. (I had read someone else's thread that indicated this as being a possibility.)
    (Note: I went into such detail above in the event this thread might help someone else at a later date with his/her own ram upgrade problem.)
    A much relieved and grateful...

  • Display problem after RAM Upgrade to MS6712

    Hi there,
    after a RAM upgrade (512mb to 3GB) my PC has developed a display problem. The graphics are slow / rippled and video playback is very poor. In device manager no "display adapters" are present and there is also an error mesage referring to the VIA CPU to AGP2/AGP3.0 controller not having enough free resources to run due to a conflisct with VGAsave? I've downloaded the latest VIA chipset drivers to no effect?
    System info: MS6712 MB, AMD Athlon 1.25GHZ, XP SP3.0

    OK, here's the info on my PSU;
    It's a Powerman FSP250-60GTU(PF). Input: 230V - 5A, 50Hz. Max Output: 250W
    While I had the case open I took out 2 of the RAM modules and without making any other changes everything appeared to work fine with just the 1GB, so I tried putting 1 more back in to take it to 2GB and again all seems fine? Does this indeed point to my PSU then? If so and it works fine with 2GB should I be thankfull for a 512mb to 2GB upgrade and send the 3rd module back to Crucial??
    Before I posted this thread I did run a memtest from Memtest86+ with all three modules installed and it came up with NO problems?
    Re Henry's post, I searched using the format of the part no on the RAM modules themselves i.e. M368L2923FLN-CB3 and it took me here:
    http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/productListNonflexTable.do?fmly_id=118&sht_id=1
    Other info on printed the modules themselves: 1GB DDR PC2700 CL2.5
    According to Everest my CPU temp (with 2GB installed) is: 43 degrees (MOBO 30 degrees and HD 42 degrees) - do these seem normal?

  • Problems with RAM upgrade iMac G5 1.8GHz

    Stuck - Need Help!
    I've previously upgraded up iMac to 2 500Mb RAMs and felt recently that it needed that little bit extra, so I ordered two 1Gb chips from crucial.
    Followed instructions to T, but with the two new chips in, the machine won't load.
    Interestingly, it boots up with the following RAM combinations
    old 500MB + new 1GB (in any combination) - recognised as 1.5GB
    one new 1GB RAM (again either one) - recognised as 1GB
    I spoke to crucial who said that as the RAMs work individually, there isn't a problem with them, it could be a Firmware issue. I've upgraded all my software, and don't know what to do next?
    Anyone overcome a similar problem in the past?
    Thanks

    I'm experiencing something very similar to shaow. I'll share my experience in gory details - sorry for the long post but I've spent more hours trying to stabilize. I should have worked the hours at walmart and bought a new iMac with the money I could have earned
    Anyway, here goes:
    Two iMac G5 1.8Ghz 17" (both Fall 2005 model), will call one A and the other B.
    Prior to attempting ram upgrade: A, config working fine: both a config using 1GB slot 1, 256MB slot 2 and a single 1 PC3200 1GB stick. OS X 10.4-10.5.7. No problems. I did have the motherboard replaced under warranty after having sleep problems - capacitors were expanded. No problems since that motherboard swap.
    Prior to attempting ram upgrade: B, config working fine: 2 x 256MB sticks. OS X 10.3.9
    Ordered 3 PC3200 400Mhz 1GB sticks from Data Memory Systems.
    Upgraded A: Added 1GB stick = 2GB total
    Upgraded B: Removed both 256MB sticks from B and added two 1GB sticks = 2GB total
    Booted B, experienced gray screen of death with the multi-language crash message - somethign like: 'Please hold down the power button and restart'. Power cycled B, booted off a retail box DVD of OS X 10.5.6. Began upgrade to 10.5.6. Gray screen of death part way thru upgrade. Power cycled, gray screen of death again during early boot phase.
    Decided to run tests on B. I could not locate the Apple Hardware Test (neither on system dvd 1 nor on a separate DVD). I resorted to using TechnoTools Deluxe which was included with AppleCare box. No hardware problems found including on the 2GB memory.
    Removed both new 1GB sticks, pulled older working 1GB stick from A and installed into B. Completed upgrade with just 1GB memory on B to 10.5.6 and subsequently pulled down all updates for OS X 10.5.8. Powered down, added second 1GB stick to B, booted into 10.5.8 successfully. Repaired disk permissions, restarted. Began using applications, then after only about 5 minutes experienced gray screen of death. Powered down, removed new 1GB stick, replaced with one of the two remaining new 1GB sticks. Read about reseting PRAM/NVRAM. Followed steps to reset PRAM then decided to do the reset NVRAM within openfirmware. Started back up and logged into 10.5.8. Ran several applications - did not experience gray screen of death after about 20 minutes use. Have not had time for further tests on B yet.
    Back to my saga with A (my original iMac G5 that was working fine with 1GB stick on 10.5.7):
    Called Data Memory Systems and they sent me a replacement for the 'bad' 1GB stick.
    While I was waiting for the new 1GB stick from DMS, I was struggling to get machine fully updated. Software Updater was failing with the weird network error (network was fine) and after following steps to troubleshoot, I backed up the user accounts and decided to reinstall OS X fresh from the 10.5.6 retail box (family license). Finally, I had OS X 10.5.8 all fully updated on the 1GB iMac G5 (A).
    New memory arrived, installed 2nd 1GB stick. Booted up, immediately I got the gray screen of death. Restarted, booted up got about 5-15 minutes use then gray screen of death. Puzzled, I called DMS who said unlikely I got 2 bad sticks. They suggested I try memtest. So I did...
    So on A, I first ran memtest from single user mode on the 2GB config. It crashed immediately with some 'Unexpected' error. Did not look like a memory error. I powered down, removed 2nd 1GB stick, and ran memtest from single user on the 1GB stick. Ran all tests 3x over a couple hours - no problems found. Retested after swapping the 1GB stick for the other. Both tested fine. Installed both sticks again and ran memtest all tests, one pass (didn't want another 6 hours lost) on the 2GB config, and all tests passed. Booted up and got gray screen of death - I don't recall if it was on bootup or after running but I ran fsck with no disk problems found, then restarted, logged in, ran disk utility to repair all permissions. Some repairs were made. Restarted A, reset PRAM and NVRAM again, booted successfully.
    I haven't had much time to run extensively apps on A yet. It's sleeping as I type this on another mac. My next test will be to reset SMU.
    I'm starting to wonder if the original iMac G5 has firmware problems that would prevent it from being unstable with two 1GB sticks??? My experience on two identical models of iMac G5 plus reading this post with VERY similar behaviors and after all the normal tests. I've concluded the memory is A-OK and something more sinister is lurking...
    Any thoughts are appreciated.

    First go to the RIM web site and look to see if they have an uninstaller for the device you had.  Some times a reinstall of the application and then running the uninstaller is required for complete removal.
    If no uninstaller is available, then you will have to use Spotlight to find all items with 'Blackberry' and 'Rim' in the titles.  I would also download EasyFind and use that to locate such files.  Often it will locate items that Spotlight misses.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook late 2008 13" RAM upgrade?

    So I have this old Macbook from 2008 called "Macbook Ultimo 2008".
    The Macbook is not a pro model and the only aluminium from 2008.
    Here's a guide on how to upgrade the RAM on my Mac from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1651#link2 .
    Officially this Macbook was released with a maximum RAM capacity of 4GB in 2 slots. A new firmware update made it possible to upgrade all the way up to 8GB of memory. Article: http://blog.macsales.com/9102-secret-fir...ks-use-8gb .
    Now i really want to know if i can just upgrade only 1 slot with a 4GB RAM card and keep one of my old RAM cards in there. This will let me have 6GB of memory.
    I just don't know if the RAM are going to work together and if I have to upgrade to 8GB instead.
    Yes, i could upgrade to only 4GB of memory but since i can upgrade all the way up to 8GB, I think I'm going to make it a bit faster than just 4GB.
    The RAM I've looked at: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl...l7&act=url
    Official memory card specifications:
    "- Double Data Rate Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (DDR SO-DIMM) format
    - 30mm
    - 1 GB or 2 GB (Now up to 4GB)
    - 204-pin
    - PC3-8500 DDR3 1066 MHz Type RAM".
    I'm not wanting to spend more than $60 on this!
    Thanks for the help.

    I have the same MacBook model (5,1 Late 2008). I managed to install 8GB of RAM without problems.
    You need to update your EFI Boot ROM to MB51.007D.B03 to install more than 5GB.
    Check in System Profiler what version of EFI Boot you have, if it's MB51.007D.B03, you can install 4+4 GB of RAM. Once you have ensured that the EFI Boot is the correct version, make sure tour O.S. is updated to OSX 10.6.6 (or newer version). I have OSX 10.8.3 with 8GB, the manufacturer is Samsung. No problems at all.
