asus K8N bios version unknown..what ever came with it.
Amd 3000+ 739 socket.
1gig memory 512mb X2 adding a new stick of 1gig
Orginal speed of memory is PC3200 400mhz. same speed as the new but different vendor. the original is corsair, new is Ultra.
problem. turned off PC to add new memory on the 3rd and final slot. added the memory, turned on PC, it came on for just a few seconds and powered off, i then started to smell a burning smell...wtf? so i pulled the memory out tried to boot the pc with the original memory in place and i get a beep (long) then a beep beep (fast)
i have tried just putting in the memory in one stick at a time but no go.
wtf just happened and how do i fix it????
