Ok.. I find the fix.. The problem was not the ram or the motherboard.. but where I put the ram. In order to work they have to be put alternated.. So I put the original ram in slot A and C and the new ram in slot B and D.. In this way works perfect.

Hope it will help someone else with the same problem..

PS: I did buy the new ram in the crucial website and it was very cheap and works fine so far. To check the compatibility of my ram I did the test in the crucial website and after doing the test i bought the upgrade they offered..

Hope it will help who ever wants to upgrade the memory on his dell..

Cheers

Try the new memory in place of the original  -- if it works there, but not in addition to the original, chances are it's a mainboard problem.

Did the memory come from Crucial, or elsewhere?

So I tried all the possible combination between the memory I have and the one I bought from crucial and the crucial's memory work fine.. my laptop doesn't start only when I put any kind of ram in my C and D slot.. so i guess my laptop motherboard doesn't work..

Is there any other possibility that I'm missing?
