Hi,

I recently tried upgrading my laptop RAM to 8GB which is max it can take in. The ram sticks were (2x) DDR3 4GB Samsung 1600mhz 12800 1.35v. The system detected the new RAM, showed new memory and even passed the memory test. But it is not booting in windows. I tried clearing CMOS. But no success. Windows not letting me in. BIOS version is upto date (F29). Is there any setting for this? 

Thanks for all the help!

Hi:

 

Please see this discussion.  You have to be very picky about what memory you use in your model series...
