Help with Ram upgrading HP DM1-4108au

Segression · 26th June 2012, 5:56 PM

Hey guys i purchased a HP Mini DM1-4108au (or 4018au) from jbhifi the other day, ordered some extra ram for it. as it only came with 2gb.

It has 2 slots.
It comes with 1x 2gb stick already in it.

I Bought g.skill 2x4gb 1333mhz sodimm kit off pccg.

I Put both in there. It turns on but nothing on the screen. Will not boot
If i take one out it boots, I tried both in the first slot seperately and it boots and reads 4gb np.
I put 1x 4gb and the original 2gb in and it boots fine and displays 6gb. But its not booting with both 4gb sticks in it. They both work by themselves so the ram is all good.

I updated it to the latest bios but still get nothing.

Any ideas guys?
