    New HW Drive, New Oper. Sys.

    Tony, I was not clear in my first post. I now have only 1 hardrive in the computer (300 Gig). I had the same message with my 40 Gig drive for the last two weeks upon booting it. I don't believe that it is a "Slave" issue. The 300 Gig drive was virtually new however it did have a...

    I now have Microsoft XP Professional installed on my Dell Dimension 3000 machine (it was not smooth and I want to re-due the whole thing but I can't). Prior (old 40Gig drive)came up the same upon boot and now when I boot the computer with a new 300Gig Drive I still get the following message...

    Laptop Memory Install gone wrong

    As it turns out I was able to Flash the Bios to update them, however it didn't help the overall situation. I did however determine that Dimm slot "A" is defective by process of elimination with your suggestions. It also turns out that it is not possible to "Enable Memory" within the Dell...

    Laptop Memory Install gone wrong

    When you say that you suggest I check the Cmos what does that mean and how do I go about this task ? Conversely how do I check to see if the memory is enabled. Any direction at this point would really help. I'm somewhat savy to a point. I'm not an Electrical Engineer though. Thanks for...

    Laptop Memory Install gone wrong

    I hope I can do it that way as you have suggested, however I'm pretty sure that there is a dominate slot that always needs some thing in it correct? I may be wrong. I'll read up in the user guide and see if it is talked about at all. Thanks for your wisdom . . .

    Laptop Memory Install gone wrong

    That actually had crossed my kind but didn't want to act on it or assume it. Is there a test that I can do from home (Software or Hardware) to test the individual slots ? If so could you advise me ? Thanks in advance

    Laptop Memory Install gone wrong

    I absolutely know that its the correct 200-pin(DDR)SODIMM Memory Module for the Dell C840 Laptop. The Memory is NEW from 4allmemory.com . I have bought from them before with perfect results. The one thing that I negelected to mention in my first post was that the C840 was not showing the...

    Laptop Memory Install gone wrong

    My Dell C840 Laptop now shows that 512mb of SODIMM Memory is installed. I should have 1 GB currently showing, how can this be ? I was very careful to use a grounding strap and the installation went very smooth. What could possibly be wrong ?
