Help with Inspiron 8600
I bought a 1gb memory module off of Ebay and it has the following specs:
-1024MB
-333Mhz
-SODIMM (DUL IN-LINE MEMORY)
-Non ECC
-200 PIN
-64 x 8 Low Density
Right now I have 2 x 256mb modules and I took one out and replaced it with this 1gb stick. It seemed to work ok, and I left it on overnight. In the morning I noticed that there was a black screen with an error message. I don't remember exactly what it said, but it had something to do with the memory. I turned the computer off, and rebooted but instead the middle LED light would blink 3 times and the laptop would not turn on. I replaced the ram back to the original 2 x 256mb and it worked fine.
Do I need to have 2 x 1gb modules for this to work? I tried every combination but it didn't seem to work. Did I buy the wrong ram? Any help would be appreciated...
