Thanks for this video! This is how I found out my memory was bad. I just swapped around the memory and ended up with one bad bar. Removed it and now I can just use my old crappy dell again.
Its a RAM problem guys, you need new RAM. I don't know how much is suppoerted, but I know they are shipped with 256MB... I tried to upgrade a friends to a gig and it did the same thing. After taking it out and leaving it with the original 256, it worked fine! Hope this helps
my Dell is working again!Here's what I did-there are 2 RAM modules, I have removed the module A and put module B to position A.Dell boot up with half RAM memory so after shutdown I installed also the second RAM module and it's working now fine.Let me know, if it helped also to you.
